I can't make Boise to home on a full tank, so I usually stop somewhere around Hood River.

Sometimes I'll take highway 20 instead since it's shorter and quieter. Adds 15 minutes in theory, but if there's not much traffic I can make that up. Of course, if Portland is home than 84 is the only way to do it.
In which car? I made Boise to Beaverton with a quarter tank left and my car only has a 10-11 gallon tank
