Coincidentally, though, my son does live it UT.
1.) It adds WA, NV and OH to the list of states that you can carry in.
2.) Gives you a backup if your Texas renewal takes to long.

I also leave my UT license in the truck (somewhere nobody would ever think to look) in case I ever forget or lose my wallet (some will argue this is not wise, I have already weighed the pros and cons of this approach).

Edit to add NV.

I wish I had known since I have family in UT and in WA and visit at least once a year or so. IIRC, WA accepts UT's CHL but not TX's.

Further, if TX accepts UT and the UT CHL is cheaper, why not just a UT CHL in the 1st place and skip getting TX?

To get the UT license you have to take the UT class. You do get a lot more states with the TX license since a good number of states do not recognize non-resident licenses.

I reckon the Crossfire-training.com website belongs to you then. So I'll probably get to meet you in either the February or March class. I may take the Texas CHL class first though, just in case any leo encounters that may not understand.

Thanks,

If you are thinking of having both the Texas and Utah licenses. Crossfire offers a combination course that would be much more cost (and time) effective than getting them separately.
If I had to do it again that is the way I would do it. And remember once you get the Utah license, there is no class required for renewal and the renewal fee is only $10.
Here is a link to crossfire's website: http://www.crossfire-training.com/
