    That is at Padre island national seashore. Also called PINS for short. The park offers 60 miles of beach that you can drive on. Fun place to visit.

    I remember seeing you. You had the bigger tires/wheels and bull bar if my memory is correct.
    I think I was the only in the group from TW. The others got banned from here but are on Tacomaoffroad.com now.

    I removed my spacer leveling kit up front, and just have 5100's set at max height. Now I am having some major rubbing issues. I am hoping to get it taken care of by then. I may not be able to do much, if not.

    Looks like I'm in guys! I don't have anything in the morning/afternoon. The TCU airforce game is later that night at 7pm so I'd want to try and be back for that.

    I've been out to bridgeport before and it's a fun set of trails. Still plenty of stuff stock 4x4's can do and even more if you've got some serious mods...or a Jeep! :D

    As far as DFW guys go...where would you want to meet? I'm thinking there is a Shell gas station at the intersection of I35 and 114 by the Speedway. We'd likely be taking that route anyways wouldn't we?

    I'm just trying to figure out a place for us to all meet. That one seemed like the most logical spot since it's on the west side and on 114 which is what I've traditionally taken to get out there.

    That sounds like a good place to meet. Gives everyone a chance to get gas, ice and drinks.

    Yeah, they have a subway at that gas station too so we can get sandwiches (or whatever) to eat on the trail during the day.

    I say we leave the Shell at 8:45AM, which should put us at the park around 9:30 for those coming from WF or other areas.

    Address for the station is:
    8121 Gasoline Aly
    Northlake, TX 76262-3312

    Address for the park is:
    2914 Hwy 101
    Bridgeport, TX 76426

    sound good?

    Latest changes for me. My plant is working. I'll still be out, but may not be until 11 or so. Minor setback, but I'm still coming to the park to play. If I am able to sneak out any earlier, I'll meet yall at the gas station.

    My neighbor just got a brand new Jeep XJ and he is coming with. It is pretty nice and has a 3" procomp lift and the new 35" Nitto mud tires.

    Hope you get out there early; it's going to be a fun day. I'd imagine we'll be there well past 11 though so either way we should be good.

    Sweet man. He's gonna walk all over us for sure out there. I've seen stock rubicons do things I didn't think were possible!


    I'd also agree with 8th sin that we should LEAVE at 8:45. So if you aren't there at that time you'd better know how to get there on your own.
