Looks like a kissing bug as we call them in the desert.

Uh... if that's a kissing bug you DON'T WANT IT. They are bloodsuckers and will bite YOU. It does look like some kind of elder or assassin bug to me, too, but not quite like a kissing bug. IME kissing bugs have a distinct pattern on each side of the abdomen, a ticked or checked/striped pattern, either red or brown or anything in between. They also have a long proboscis, which I don't see on that bug (could be the angle of the shot).

Looks jus like a box elder to me
Grew up in the Midwest and they were all over out there. But usually during the summer
