2023, November.
From New Mexico to Louisiana, across the panhandle, along I-20, through DFW. Long waits. In my experience many truckers would not give rides out due to insurance reasons, the ones who were willing were not going east like me. So keep that in mind, although it may be different for you. Walking along the interstate, hitchin' is fine, just pray for a Mexican guy on his way to work to save you, they're practically the patron saint of hitchhikers in Texas, dudes called Jésus, Herman or Diego.
They give out a LOTTA money here. $120 for me, in two separate occasions. Folks are honest and friendly at gas stations. I experienced racism as an Asian male in East Texas, specifically near Tyler. Someone called the police on my hitchhiking, but he let me off without a ticket and gave me a ride. Nice guy.
