New guy in Georgetown, TX (near Austin)

Hello all, I just wanted to introduce myself. I have been a lurker here for a while after being referred by M813rc (Thanks Rory....I hold you responsible!!) We work together at the same establishment... I am a former Army Bradley crewmember, and new to the green iron addiction. I had my MV epiphany while camping on the beach at Padre Island National Seashore. I had my Z-71 about 55 miles down the beach, and thought...this would be much more fun in a military truck! So it begins...not quite ready to buy yet, but doing my dilligent research...so thanks for the info....the reading continues... If anybody in Central Texas need a wrench hand, I'd be happy to come lend a hand and learn a little bit in the process... I'm a helicopter pilot by trade...not much of a mechanic yet!!

Welcome aboard. You are located in the Texas MV mecca, with Ft Hood right up the road. Plenty of trucks all over in every nook and cranny in the hill country.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys....I was at Hood when my Army obligation ended, and decided to stay in the area. I am originally from Southern California...and found that the Lone Star State better suited me...so I stayed. I have fond memories of acres and acres of trucks at FT. Hood....now if they ever have a good sale there, it'll be like a reunion....Would love to get my hands on a newer 5 ton a la M939, I'd be set...but I'm afraid that a little outside my budget!!

I'm in Round Rock near Old Settlers Park. I'm waiting on my EUC to clear so I can
go pickup my CUCV M1009.

Welcome Home sir! Is RC going to bring you along to the club meeting Wednesday? If so I will see you there. I am in North Austin, and work in Cedar Park.
