Good choice.

Needles is notorious for high gas prices and scams.

for overnighting on I 10, we like:
reststop 8 miles west of Sonora
reststop just west of Van Horn
Flying J or reststop at exit 1, Anthony, TX. There is also a Camping World about a mile east of there. The reststop is a welcome center, I think.
Texas Canyon reststop, very pretty
Reststop on I 8 a few miles west of I 10.
Going to Lake Meade:
if you go up 93 out of Phoenix, there is a great little Fed. Campground a few miles south of Wikeup, AZ called Burro Creek campground. Water and dump.

Thanks for info. We are at Las Vegas Bay campground at Lake Mead. This is a jewel in the desert. Many different size sites, lots of palms, oleanders bushes & trees. Dump & water, no electric. Even has a section, no generators.

Try the other campgrounds around Lake Mead all are great.
Not far away is the Valley of Fire State Park. Camping is spectacular.

I love that place. Wonderful scenery, great for walking.

Spent some time at Government Wash (north and east) on the other side. Free, but really rough getting around in there.
