    I see a lot of free stuff, sales, etc that are killer on shipping costs that prevent members from buying items because of weight, shipping costs, etc.

    Having the network of TW members all over the country, why not have a road trip delivery service. Whereas members can leapfrog an item to another user free of charge. Really helps out on those heavier/larger items, ie rims, tires, engine parts etc.

    I have done it in the past. Had to wait a month while my item came from East coast to Colorado but saved me a couple hundred bucks. It could be called the TW hookup!

    A member can post their trip; heading from NJ to CO in May. On the flipside someone can post: Have rims in CA and need them in TX.

    Just a thought

    Great minds think alike (TW Express). There's a few regional Express threads:

    Yes, I am compiling information. Let's say it's a "research" build right now. :devil: A 3rd gen is in the cards just not sure what year yet.

    Yes, I was thinking more nationally, and maybe just maybe without the BS to keep it more focused and on track. I know a lot to ask. lol
