Heffner Toyota Parking Lot Take Over-Aug 25, 2019

@Krezz thanks for the hospitality today...good time! Might have to talk with ya re: rav4

 

i think lost @Steves104x4.

He was right behind me and i think he rolled onto the wrong exit of the 403 heading to sarnia instead of to Hamilton

 

Ha, 403 ends at Woodstock so he wont be sarnia bound too far!

 

hopefully the confuser that he has lead him back home.

also photos!

 

Made it! Somehow! Thank you, everyone! See you again, soon

 

Was awesome seeing everyone and awesome to see you Steve! It’s been a while that’s for sure.

 

I LOST YOU ALONG THE WAY WHAT HAPPENED? YOU WERE RIGHT BEHIND ME!
but regardless, glad to see you made it in one piece!

It was a great joy to meet everyone today as well

 

@ Everyone - Thank you all for attending. It was really awesome to have everyone drive in from all different areas. Really appreciate that.
Was great as always to see familiar faces and meet some new ones!

Glad you had fun, and I hope to expand on this in the future!

If it's ok, I'd like to "borrow" the photos you all were able to take and share them up on our website in the near future - as while I obtained a bunch of video, I forgot to snap ANY photos what so ever. Pretty terrible on me, but that's how much fun I was able to have, that I got too busy talking and filming.

@TeecoTaco - I would be more than happy to help you out should you desire. If you need me, feel free to let me know.

Thanks again everyone!!

ps. A full time lapse video of the event will be up by Monday and then I'll work on a finished product that I hope to have completed within the week.

 

This is the full TIME LAPSE version of the Heffner Parking Lot Take Over -- edited video with vehicle close ups I hope to have completed within the week.

Enjoy this for time being! hahah.

i demand all royalties to any photos you use and nothing less!

jokes aside, yeah by all means use whichever photos you'd like. i do have a few more on the sd card - only posted a handful to avoid 10 of the same

 

Thank you Kevin for the hospitality. Great to see so many Tacoma/Toyota enthusiasts together. Great to meet the few I had a chance too. Recently becoming deaf doesn't make socializing easy anymore. My sister and I had a wonderful time representing 1st Gen Tacomas. Amazing trucks all around. Cheers.

 

Just got word that the Toyota Factory in Cambridge is hosting a car show on Sept 8th from 11-2pm.
I'll aim to confirm details on Thursday and then post up the event information in case we want to once again hang out.

 

I'm in. I will be there this time lol

 

Video is up - Hope I got all names right to their vehicle and that you enjoy.
Thanks again and lookin' forward to the next one!

Hey there, hello - how ya doing?

Still got a while yet, but I've spoken to the folks over at TNORTT and they have allowed me to hijack their usual April/May get together date to host another showing over at Heffners.

Do details to follow in he coming weeks (month) or so - but a quick and maybe other questions to come up...

If I promote the show further out to the "general public" so folks w/out trucks who may just want to walk around and look at your various setups, how would majority feel? Would you be ok with people parking off to the side up on our side hill and have them walk around?

I'm also looking into food trucks vs hosting a BBQ.

I may put up a secondary post which will contain a poll I just don't have the time on my phone atm to create that, so think on it and circle back around later.

 

I like that idea. We can have space for “show” trucks (like older pickups in good condition etc) and then park the rest of crew as they come around it.

Food trucks always welcome too!

 

Yeah i'm totally cool with it, to be honest - i thought the last meet up was going to be like what you just described

your truck isn't included in this
it is neither old, nor in good condition.

you get paired with the overland group

 

Yeah I had visions in my head of the same but needed to show the squad here that we could draw up a crowd before they'd allow me a little more rope.

So that part has been secured... now not to hang myself with it lol

 

My truck will not survive for the next meet, just saying
