texas

[TxTerra]

we should have a north, central, east, south texas, oklahoma, arkansas, louisana

 

[MA_Trooper]

I agree with this

 

[TxTerra]

west texas would be better off in a new mexico and arizona group i think

 

[MA_Trooper]

I could see that. It's tough for me in Austin cause both borders are about equally far to drive and equally beautiful. But I think this makes sense.

 

[MA_Trooper]

by equally I mean that NM is 3 hours further. haha.

@cjones @TxTerra are you guys in the same region? I want to open new regions requested, instead of populating the forums with every region. That way we fan watch it grow!

 

[MA_Trooper]

I believe we are

 

[TxTerra]

austin and dallas are about 4 hours apart.

 

[Michael]

austin and dallas are about 4 hours apart.

Is that East or Central? Both?

 

[TxTerra]

Im in north texas, he is in central texas. Parts of houston and corpus christi are near south texas which are on the coast

 

[TxTerra]

Dallas, houston, san antonio, austin, corpus christi are all relatively in the same "region".

The guys out west in el paso, lubbock, midland, amarillo usually head west for most of their trips.

Arkansas, Oklahoma, and louisana would also fit well into the region as well

Just for reference, its about 650 miles from dallas to el paso, and about 420 miles from dallas to corpus.

 

[MA_Trooper]

There isn't much in west texas til you get to the panhandle

 

[TxTerra]

There is some nice stuff around Big Bend, then you also have the sand hills not too far outside midland.

 

[MA_Trooper]

Referring more to population wise.

 

[TxTerra]

yeah, its pretty barren out that way unless its a college town

 

[MA_Trooper]

I hate to split Texas up but it is such a big state that its hard to justify keeping it together.

Go big or go home :) You guys have a huge state!

 

[TxTerra]

We do happen to be the 2nd largest state, and for good reason

I am in Lake Jackson.... grid 29.037181,-95.4270776 is close.

 

[IronPercheron]

I'm in that one area.. with no number lol. Logistically speaking.... and personal preference. i will likely be headed toward Region 8 for now. As i continue to improve my rig i will move on to farther destinations. As it is i go to Toledo Bend Reservoir twice a year.
