    TLDR December 23, 2017: I need someone to get a package from Regina SK. It needs to go towards Toronto or Ottawa.

    Hey what's up my Northern neighbors!! I am hoping to get some help from you all. I am trying to find a tried and true Canadian TW Express. Specifically from Surrey BC to Toronto. I am looking to buy shocks and coil springs from @WormSquirts

    The parts are located in Surrey BC. The goal is to get the parts over to Toronto to either @Kemosabe or @Bocsy44 From there, the parts will come down into NY State where @EatSleepTacos and @fatfurious2 will be meeting them. They are having an international Tacoma meet in NY State and also doing a decent length TW Express of skid plates to @Bocsy44

    We don't know when the international TW meet will happen. The skids have just been paid for last week and its about a 4-6 weeks lead time. figure on having about that much time to get this done.

    If you know of an established cross-Canada route, please tag those folks. Or if you can think of anyone who can help with this, maybe this will help people in the future. I greatly appreciae the help and would most definitely return the favor if I can!! This is going to go down as the longest TW Express in the history of TW.

    @Subway4X4 figured you want to be witness to this.

    @Swisscosmo offered to go from Victoria to Edmonton around the Jan timeframe.

    I could help take them from the Toronto area down to NY. This is going to be good haha

    How about from Edmonton to Toronto? I believe I was tagged in that post by @Bocsy44 . @Bocsy44 and others are coming down into, Binghamton, NY, so if they could get their hands on these shocks, that would be easiest. That being said, our Northeast TW Express crew is pretty strong.

    I can definitely get them from Vancouver to Regina Saskatchewan. I’m heading past Alberta to Regina to visit a buddy. So that’s a few less KMs. I’d be leaving Saskatchewan on Jan 6th, so anyone able to get there?

    Edit: if there’s anyone in Montana or North Dakota I could possibly meet someone at the border. The border is only an hour away from where I’ll be in Saskatchewan.

    If we pull this off, all participants should get a custom sticker for this, because it'd be pretty awesome.

    It's just as easy to get it straight to Ottawa rather then down to Toronto depending on people. If we can get it up to thunder bay area before Christmas I can drive up to Kapuskasing to visit family and grab them off @BohlaaH cuz I'm off work from Dec 15th to 27th.

    I could get my sticker girl to make something up for us. Maybe half the American flag half the Canadian with a TW.com and date on the top and bottom borders?

    That's sick! Minus the tw.com. Tcbob doesn't like anyone using the site name on stuff.

    Point taken. What else could we use as a taco identifier? The Toyota emblem?

    Could do something like this, but in the middle the two flags, and some dates in there somewhere maybe.

    I'll push this to my sticker girl. All we need are dates and numbers. Do we want all white or all black?

    I say stick with white. We won't have dates for a bit though, but I'm not in any rush. We could even wait until after it's done so it's perfect.
