New Member from Houston

[Mr.RoadWarrior]

Hi folks,

I already posted in new members, but wanted to introduce myself here.

I've been doing a lot of solo trips but would be interested in meeting like-minded OB members for trips - I roam pretty far, so with enough notice, I can be anywhere.

If you're in my area, give me a shout and we can grab a beer (at a restaurant) or meet and talk about rigs.

Best to All,

Mr.RoadWarrior

No worries brother, my wife and I have done quite a few solo trips. Next time we decide to make a trip, I’ll post here.

Enjoy—

I guess I’m a bit late. But I’m also from Houston Texas. Just started out. I’m not sure what all my 2wd 3rd gen 4runner can do. But I’ll at least try. I work 2/3rds of the year so I get a week off for every 2 weeks worked. So I can try a day trip here and there. Wanting to get my son out from them video games and hopefully this will help me. Just starting off and may be doing a small day trip in may.

You might try Sam Houston National Forest or any of the forest areas NE from Houston into Arkansas. mostly paved and gravel roads (except for Arkansas).

If you want a beach trip, 3 hours down to Corpus and get into Padre Island National Seashore --- drive on the beach and camp if you want. Regular cars drive it all the time.

As with all trips, do a little planning and you'll be fine.

For a long trip, Big Bend Nat'l Park is a great desert experience.

Sounds great! I will start some planning soon and hope all goes well. Thanks for help!

Hey guys! Glad I found this post. Hope ya'll are still around and looking to meet up with like minded folks for discussions and trips. My wife and I recently took the young ones on a 2 day trip and spent the 1st day at Hidden Fall Adventure Park in Marble Falls and the second day exploring the Texas Hill Country Overland Route. No real need for 4 wheel drive except around the James River if you want to play. But even then you can most likely cross it with just 2 wheel drive fairly easy. It is recommended to do this route in 2 days and I agree as we only did the western most portion of the route and it took a full 6 hours for us and we stopped a few times and explored/played.

The map is from AllTrails app.

We are hoping to ready for a long 1 week minimum trip by next summer 2022 to someplace fun like MOAB, Rubicon trail, Colorado or similar but are not looking to go alone.

Definitely still around and itching to take the next trip.
