Let's meet in Gig Harbor!
I know for a fact there are a bunch of Cruiser and 4WD Toyota owners in Gig Harbor; LandPimp is here, and I've seen several cool 40s, 80s, and a 55 driving around town or parked at the auto repair place by the post office.
Sooooo...let's meet up informally at say the Hy-Hu-Hee-Hee--big parking lot for our trucks, grab some pizza, and talk Toyotas?!
Drop me a message back, any night would be fine, we could arbitrarily say Wednesday night next week?
Dave

David,
Where is this Hy-Hu-Hee-Hee place? If I got an address I could always GPS it. Would be interested in getting out and meeting some of the local cruisers.

David,
Hope the GTG went well, anyone get pictures?
Unfortunately it was a late one for me, maybe next time. My only problem is getting to a GTG after work because my hours are sporadic at best these days. Fridays or the weekend are my best chance as long as I do not get called in.
Glen

It was small but fun! Ryan showed up from Silverdale in his sweet FJ40 having just stopped in town to pick up $900 in OEM parts from a guy for only $200. Sch-wing! Kimber also showed up in his cool 1985 FJ60--her second 60 and still chugging along with over 215,000 miles. I came in my 1995 FZJ80 and stopped a gent on the way out in his 1991 FJ80 and tried to get him to stay, but he had to roll.
Next time we'll do it on a different day as Tuesday is Trivia Night at the Hy-Iu-Hee-Hee! It was fun, we all took part anyway as we had a few bevs, talked Cruisers and ate. It's a start, no worries, just informal, we'll get more.
In the meantime don't forget about groups like the South Sound Cruisers and the Seattle Cruiserheads!
