Found this in a small south Texas town. Sorry I couldn't get any closer.

Thats crazy. With all the drug addicts in this town, i figured this thing would be stripped clean. I was thinking of asking for a cutting.

Somebody knows about it. Ask, if you decide to be an asshole and take some, don't take a lot.

I am going to ask and if they say no then so be it. But if they say yes, how much should I ask for. I'm just wanting to experience one trip and then plant the rest.

Nah, theres nothing else thats shaped quite like that.
I see how the tips are a little suspect (the left side is thin, and the right side seems to appear to be clumping. but there some indicators they've been cut.)
and check out the main column. That is pure T. pachanoi. Bloated base, and you notice how it seems like it grew in segments at the top? Frost damage, and the typical trichocereus repsonse of pupping at the top areole.
The main candidate for a look-a-like, cereus, has a more branching form. Cereus uses its light frame to throw up branches outward and away from the main body to soak up more light. pachanoi has a very straight-laced upright growth pattern. and note all the basal pups.. pachanoi forms dense thickets of columns if left alone, and it's already starting to.
She's a beaut.

From the over all look of the plant and how fat the tips are I am going to say Trichocereus scopulicola
It just dont look right for a PC pach but then it could be a non PC pach. 
OP take a better photo if you can I think whatever it turns out to be you have found an interesting Trichocereus
Cheers

If they give me a cutting, what amount would be needed to get a decent trip due to the size of the branches?

1-2 feet of cactus. Ask though cause you might get a cutito grow too. If you do, use midsections for mescaline and the ones with rounded growing tips for growing.
