Answer 1

Will you return by the same route or will you go from Texas through New Mexico and Arizona back to LA?  You did not say where in Texas you plan to visit.  

You will be driving through desert, mountain and plains.  What a great variety of scenery.  The link assumed Dallas and Ft. Worth area.  Note that the weather in October in Colorado could bring snow in October - (see link).  Petrol should be cheapest in Texas.

Here are links to the states' web sites for tourist information:

(NEVADA /LAS VEGAS) - http://travelnevada.com/

Answer 2

It is to bad that you are not going to the northeast where the trees are beautiful that time of year or maybe a little earlier.

You might get snow in Denver.

Vegas is awesome but busy. Food is fairly  cheap.

Gasoline is pretty high, $3.50 to $4.25 per gallon.

Texas will be brown, hope you like that color. [beige]

I hope this helped, our country is beautiful, we have alot of variety
