12th Annual South Padre Island TacomaWorld Meet 07-30-2022

Hello, It was me "Tuff1833" lol, Blue Tacoma with the (Thin Blue Line) Spartan Helmet decal on rear window and MARINE front license plate. Glad you came to the forums, hope to see you again at the Meet, Welcome On Board ... I'm also on Insta .. same name ....

 

That’s awesome bro! Welcome!!

 

anybody in the San Antonio area going?

 

Very nice!!!! Was this particular gentleman wearing a top hat and a monocle?


See you soon!!!

 

So you were wearing a top hat and monocle?

 

I was wearing my Motivated MARINE Cover (JK, It was my reg cap) when I saw his truck driving into the pklot ... lol

 

Question about camping on the beach at SPI...what's the better option, tent in the sand or a Napier bed mount? Don't really want to invest in a RTT right now. I remember it being windy AH last time I was there. Thanks

 

I'll be going! Was planning on leaving early that morning. I can meet you in the morning somewhere and we can drive out together.

 

Well, I will know no one, but this sounds like a blast. Assuming $$ is good I think that I will be going to this.
Anyone rolling down from DFW area?

Camping on the beach, do you have to pay/register anything like that or just park and sleep?

 

Howdy and nope just pay the entrance fee which is $14 and camping is free stay as long as you want, only time they will kick everyone out is if high tide comes in with some crazy waves and water starts to cover just about the hole beach. But it’s rare that it happens.

 

Tent is great but when I don’t wanna be on the ground I’ll use the back of my truck with an inflatable bed.

 

Ah, that is up in that fee area, ok. I drove down to the coast a couple weeks ago and ended up at Starbase completely by accident, but drove up to South Padre Island for giggles and it was silly packed with people so I went home lol

 

Oh yeah sometimes it gets crazy packed lol but yeah we shall see that day.

 

True it does get packed, But we normally push out further north, along the Beach and once a clear spot has been found, We start setting up camp (tents) and everyone else normally parks together, setting up their own tents ..

 

hola Gringo, that sounds pretty good...July 30 is the date of this event ??

 

anybody else from any city from mexico that will going?

 

Yup 30 July.

 

If it's a decent turnout this year you'll have met at least 30 new people.


We hope to see you there!!!!

 

The last 2-3 times I’ve gone I’ve always took fireworks.

 

I'll be going as well :-D
