Check passrider.com for a list of commuting options and keep in mind when you fly AA/AE you will pay roughly $12 per flight for coach class when commuting until you hit 5yrs seniority. It is free to ride on other airlines.
Realistically, it would be hard to commute into DFW on the same day if you had a sign-in time before noon. You would probably get stuck commuting in the night before and hanging at a crashpad if you had reserve. Last flight out of DFW-SLC is 9:15pm, which should be a reasonable time to catch a flight home, if there arent a dozen other AA/AE guys fighting for the last seat
