Nope, don't buy your argument.

The body is still on the property whether it is in a vehicle or not.

Dangerous to provide someone that advice and have them rely upon it to their possible detriment.
Obviously I disagree. When you are in your vehicle, you are on your property, regardless of where the vehicle is. Once you step out of the vehicle, you are on the property owner's property. If that were not true, then was was entry so clearly defined in the law? "Entry means the intrusion of the entire body." Not part of it. Not most of it.

Maybe Charles could comment?

(A) entry on the property by a license holder with a concealed handgun was forbidden; or

(B) remaining on the property with a concealed handgun was forbidden and failed to depart.

(c) In this section:

(1) "Entry" has the meaning assigned by Section 30.05(b).
(b) For purposes of this section:

(1) "Entry" means the intrusion of the entire body.
Your entire body doesn't intrude on the property owner's property until you exit your vehicle. Therefore the property owner cannot prohibit you from carrying in your car onto his property and then locking the weapon in the car before exiting the vehicle.
