    I spoke with Toyota of Pharr for this year's meet last month. They presented it to corporate but was denied for liability issues. I did not present the run in any spectacular way, just merely as a yearly Tacoma run, if they could inform their new Tacoma owners about it and if they would be interested in sporting their dealership flags on some of the TW members trucks, but liability was the reason for rejection. Or maybe I just spoke to the wrong guy!

    Don't hurt to try again for next year run. DNT give up. Show them all the pics of this run we had. A little inspiration would be good.

    I went to one meet in Ft. Worth several years ago and the admins of the group invited several employees from a dealership in Ft. Worth. They all showed up, met with us and brought several items for door prizes.

    My wife was doing some research on it and she found that we can definitely get a police escort, it'll cost anywhere from $150.00-$300.00. I may or may not be remembering correctly.

    1 or 2 other options where mentioned as well.

    It's all in how you pitch it, my good sir!

    A good, strong pitch needs to be made, one that favors both parties, we all know this though.

    I work at a dealership in CA, also worked in one in SA and for the most part, unless they really want to get involved with their communities, they will not want to participate.
    Most dealerships just don't really know how to deal with these kinds of things.

    You all are right though, we should keep this conversation going. I believe we are onto something special here. If we do it right, it will be amazing!

    I am down for anything as long as it's for a good cause!

    I'm also going to put together a video in the near future to help spread the word.

    That amount for Police Escort is possible with all of us pitching in.

    We can organi

    If it's alright with you all, we can organize the collection of the funds for that (if more are willing to pitch in) a little further down the road. Once we have a narrower focus. :)

    Agreed it's a bit to early , as time gets closer , I think the collection process can begin.

    Out of curiosity for you ppl close to the valley or in the valley. In Dallas it's burning out here with temperature. Is it this hot out there where you guys are at?

    Well not sure if it's that hot , but the humidity will knock you down quick! Heat and humidity is a killer out here! I don't think we have 3 digit numbers? Everybody please be careful if you work outdoors!
