from the look of things my car might not be ready..

even so, it should still be a good time. Any one there local you can hitch a ride with? Or anything we can do in the meantime to help?
 
Juan is going I could probably catch a ride with him, if this whole warranty issue is solved if not. I'd rather stay to stay on top of it. But I talked to them and even if they cover it or not. It takes 7 days to get here.. meaning by the beginning of next week they shoul dbe working on it. I hihgly doubt it takes a week to repair the damn thing.
 
Have you tried calling other Toyota dealers to see if they have the part? I had an issue with my Mustang that I was told the part was on National Back order. I called around and found a dealer that had it on the shelf. Had a friend give me a ride to pick the part up, and then I replaced it myself. Don't give me National Back Order crap... They're trying to make you dependable on the dealership to get more of your money.. I don't think I will ever buy another new car.. I can't stand dealerships.
 
Carlos are you kidding?...It takes about 30 minutes if that to replace an alternator....just buy the part and put it on and be done with it...I bet is the same as the 4runners since it has theame engine....Honestly I do not think they should pay out of warranty...not to be against you but rather being fair....If you wheel it and brake it, do not expect others to pay for your fun...my 0.2
 
just an FYI....I'll be in high point this weekend and will most likely swing by the BDOR location and see if I can spot a good place for breakfast....will keep you all posted.
 
its on Elon place which is off E Kivett......Kivett is right off Bus 85.... Carter bros is great, but I think it is on the other side of town.
 
I'm still in, guess I'm number 4?? Actually if you count the SO and her Hellions it's 4,5,6, and 7. Anyhow, coming from about an hour NE of BDOR, I'd rather eat somewhere on the east side of GSO than wait 'til I get to High Point. Eric and Stacey, I guess you guys will come down Holden to 85? If so is there anywhere on Holden hear 85 for a decent breakfast?

Anybody bringing any parts for the swap meet? If anyone needs parts let me know, I have some misc. 40 and 60 parts. Ugh, wait that means I'll hafta tow a trailer......
 
We are actually about 3 min. from Four Season's Mall. We could eat off High Point Road if everyone wants... There is Carolina Diner, Mc D's, B-King, ummm... That is about all I can think of on High Point Rd. Afterwards we can jump on 40 to 85 to 85 business. OR we can do Mc D's on Main St. in High Point (I think it is between 85 business and the road that BDOR is on, but I may be wrong).

Personally I would like to have "FOOD" due to it may be a long day and you never know what they will have (if any) at BDOR for food. I'll try to pack a cooler with some sandwiches and drinks just incase.
 
Trying to line things up with SO to come for breakfast and first part of the day but won't be able to stay for the whole thing. My starter keeps acting up (need to put in new contacts and plunger), but otherwise rig is good to go except for cleaning out the landscaping flotsam left over from the weekend.
 
GREAT... This event has been all the Hubby and I have talked about. We can't wait to meet other Cruiser owners, We can't wait to get all the Cruisers together.. This is going to be a lot of fun. Looks like we are going to have a pretty good group for our first "Reunion."

Tym.. Have you if Roy is still coming? R.K. may not be able to make it, but the Hubby and I are going to see if we can help him get the work done so he can join us on Sat.
 
Carolina Diner sounds good to me, then it's just a 1/2mile or so east on 40 to get to 85 so not it's not far outta the way. What say the Raliegh and East end folks??

I haven't heard from Roy. Yanno you'd think he had my $50 the way he's dodging me.. heh

Is there someway to get in touch with BDOR about the event? I sure would like to confirm that they'll have some sort of rock garden or something. If not I'd much rather drive the 60.
 
ok guys, how does Carolina diner off I-40 and high point road....take the four seasons/high point rd exit and head north (hooters will bo on the right just off the exit.....take High point rd a few blocks and Carolina diner is on the left hand side....we were thinking of being there around 0830. That way we have an hour to eat and then 30 min to make it to High point. does this sound good to those making the trip?
 
This one?

Carolina's Diner
2700 High Point Rd
Greensboro, NC 27403

Sorry, us "east enders" don't know our way around. Got confused 'cause there's a Carolina Diner on Eastchester in High Point off Main St as well that Horsehead mentioned...
 
Yes that is the address of the diner. The one in High Point is a bit out of the way (get off 85 onto Main, go past BDOR, turn onto hwy 68 same as Eastchester. Or I-40 to Hwy 68, and right before Main is Carolina Diner.) I think the one off High Point Road will be easier for everyone to find, plenty of parking, we can take a right at the light when we leave, and is close to I-40.

If anyone has questions just call us (Eric "Erymer" and Stacy) 336.509.8703

So this Carolina Diner is good for everyone... GREAT

Still working out the "details". We have one daughter coming back from camp in Louisburg, due back around 1pm so would like her to just stay with the family that's bringing her back until "we" get back from High Point (which in itself puts a limit on the length of the stay). A second daughter is unlikely to want to come to a 4x4 event (I'm so jealous of Romer) and have to decide if we want to leave her at home for most of the day on Saturday.....

I'm pretty much bent on coming regardless as a delayed Father's Day present to myself...
