I would highly recommend Mesa Verde if you are doing that region of the country. And southern Utah is, imho, one of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring places in the world.

My family took road trips every summer. We camped in National Parks and and traveled mostly off the highway. It's then that I learned how great a road trip can be.
