Anybody has a guess what the cheapest mean of transportation is to get there? I could rent a car for about $45 with taxes and 500 miles included, take a cab (probably the fastest way, but I have no idea what that would run at - any suggestions?) or take a shuttle to one of the hotels close to that location and take a cab from there (which will probably be the most time-consuming alternative, however).
So: What would you suggest me to do?

After satisfying your digital needs at Fry's suggest you drive west on LBJ to Royal Lane, exit and go up a few miles to stop light, make a right onto Bethel Road and drive to next light which is right at Hard Eight BBQ, a place that originated in Stephenville, TX (home to rodeo hall of fame). It is a great experience that you should not miss!

Then stagger back to DFW south rental car drop off and your flight :-)
