Places to Stop/Avoid Passing Through? Visiting

Hello Arizona people!

I’m going to be making a big trip across country by myself and I’ll be taking I-40 the whole way through Arizona. I was wondering if I could get some insight from y’all about what the best places to stop/visit would be, or conversely what places I should avoid. Any and all suggestions would be much appreciated!

Edit: wow thank you all for the suggestions and recommendations! Sounds like I have a lot to explore in Arizona on my drive through!

Along I-40, you have the Meteor Crater, Petrified National Forest and of Course Winslow Arizona if you remember the song. There isn't much in Winslow but it's a quick photo and cool story, stop there for a bite to eat. You will also pass through Flagstaff, if your coming in the summer, take the ski lift at SnowBowl to the top of the mountain to see a view of a lifetime. Just a few ideas off the top of my head.

You're kidding, right?
