Re: New from Texas Welcome. I live in Houston, but have family in Carthage.

Re: Who belongs to Double D club? I alternate between the Ty and the Explorer 300 miles every other week. The Ty still looks really bad from the outside, but from the inside, I can't tell.

Re: August South TX meet I am not on here that often and completely missed the original post. If Humble is not too far from everyone, we could have the Houston guys meet up at our shop. We are having an open house this Saturday (7th) if anyone wants to stop by.
