    Yes.
    It was somewhere between Sisterdale, and Luckenbach. I'm not sure exactly which road we were on at this point though.

    Same general area; I was down there riding my motorcycle a few weeks ago. Real pretty area.

    Thought you had to be 21 to have a CHL?

    Don't worry; it happens pretty fast and then you barley remember that it happened at all.

    Yes.
    With a 3" lift and LR UCAs, can someone shoot me a best bet for Wheels and Tires that are likely to fit with a minimum of fuss? I'm sure I'll have to chop the cab mount and maybe trim a few things here and there.

    are 295/75/16s out of the question? What width 16" wheel should I purchase, and what offset? Will I need to also plan hubcentric spacers, if so what width?

    Thanks :)

    You planning on shooting someone?

    I've had a CHL for over 8 years now, and I've never even felt the need to draw. I know a lot of it is the type of situation that you are in, which is never the same for two people. However, if you are justified in using deadly force, you shouldn't NEED the pre-paid lawyer. Waste of $240/year if you ask me.

    Justification all comes down to opinion honestly. When it comes to a law suit involving someone's life, I would never go in without a lawyer.

    I probably wouldn't either. It just seems like the extended warranty that no one ever successfully uses...

    It just seems like people who get the pre-paid Texas Law Shield are looking to shoot someone. I'm not saying that's what's going on here. However, if I ever pull my pistol, it should be an easy case as there should be no question that it was in self defense.

    $130/ year. And worth every single penny to me. God forbid I ever have to even pull my Gun and it will pay for itself. If I ever have to defend my own life I'd hate for that decision to cost me ever penny I've ever made to defend myself in court. Hell a retainer fee for a good lawyer is 5 figures...

    Same reason I have a 1,000,000 GL policy for my buisness. Doubt I'll ever need it but I'll thank the Lord if I ever do need it. And that's 10x as expensive as Texas Law shield
