From what you guys are telling me, I think we'll look into Round Rock and Plano. They sound nice.

Gas got too expensive, I'm using carb cleaner for mouth wash now.
I work in Austin but live slightly outside the city in Williamson County. We can still act like rednecks out there.
When I see a Prius with a Pro-Al Gore sticker or an Anti-Bush one, I just rev my non-cat exhaust fumes at their liberal hippy faces.
J/K (but I do think about it

)Speaking of exhaust fumes, do you guys have emissions laws/inspections in Texas? Are there any exemptions? My 70' Nova is what I'll be bringing there, and I KNOW that I'll fail a smog test.

I'm reviving this thread from the dead.
After 6 long years of saving every penny we had, we're finally moving to Texas. We found a house in Dripping Springs that we can afford and we're closing on it 8/1. It's been a persistent battle to get there, but we finally made it. I cannot wait to call Texas home.

Congrats bro. After reading a couple of responses here I'm glad it didn't scare you off. Austin and the surrounding areas are a great place to live. There are a lot of like minded people here who like guns, gas, girls, and gear. I'm right around the corner in Kyle, so send me a PM when you get down and I'll give you the skinny on some meets.
The first order of business once we get there is to buy another F-body. When we moved to Colorado from Florida, I sold everything I had because there was no sense keeping it covered in a garage for 8 months out of the year. It'll be nice to row through some gears again. I really cannot wait to move and get back to my roots - Which is BBQ, warm weather, good-looking women, sweet tea, and fast cars.
Vince
