Also, I don't know how major a road between Dumas, TX and Texline, TX

It's on the National Highway System, meaning the FHWA considers it to
be a major road. It's probably the best route between Kansas City and
Albuquerque.
I'm going to assume you mean 'best non-Interstate route'. Most of it
isn't even four laned yet, although Texas has some of it under
construction. Same goes for the segment between Clayton, NM and I-25,
although there New Mexico is upgrading the road to four lane divided in
one whack. Which, as an aside, makes for one incredibly long
construction zone.
I mean best route, period. There's no diagonal Interstate there.
You seem to be arguing for using physical characteristics for trunk. But
I (and some other mappers) don't see why this is necessary. Hence no
consensus.
