Between my dad being diagnosed with heart failure, work and life in general, this went on the back burner a little.

If you're interested in joining, please let us know here and sound-off on what dates in the back half of May would work best...

Prayers for your dad my friend..

Thanks, man. I really appreciate that.

Let me know what dates in late May works for you and if you have any idea for stopping points along the way. I want to gather everyone's availability and stop place ideas, then go from there...

Former Yaris owners welcomed again? (Don’t worry, I’ll roll behind the rest of the pack in stealth mode :laugh:)

Absolutely! We actually have more non-Yaris owners participating than Yaris owners at this point, so no lingering behind needed :biggrin:

We have a group chat going on Instagram and I'll update the first post here when we get it back on the calendar...

With the 24th Annual All Toyotafest (https://photos.app.goo.gl/xzijjd5S8hiHMFf57) in the books, we're going to start talking about getting this back on the calendar. Open to date suggestions, so don't be shy...

Hello,

I am new to this site - I just bought a 2007 toyota yaris, 171717 miles. Representing in Paradise Hills, San Diego.

Glad to find this group on yarisworld. Would like to be kept up to date with other San Diego yaris info. Also a SF to San Diego native. Happy to offer whatever information/local info I know.

Hey, welcome to the forum flippimenian. I'm originally from Orange County and currently reside in the Inland Empire. This thread is about a year old and was for a brunch and cruise we were planning to make from the IE to the OC and then down to San Diego. It rained on the day it was supposed to take place, so most opted to postpone it. Time flew and then COVID happened. I know of one former Yaris owner that lives in the San Diego area, but he was going to make the effort to drive up to OC to meet with our caravan and then roll with us back down to San Diego. I don't know of any current Yaris owners that are active on the forum and coordinating meets/cruises. To be frank, it was a fair amount of work to coordinate with everyone, which fell mostly on me, so I'm not sure I'm going to make the effort again. If we do make this cruise down to San Diego happen, it will most likely be a smaller group of my closer friends. If/when it happens, I'll drop a post in this thread as a heads-up and maybe we connect down there. If you make your way up to the OC/LA/IE area, give me a heads-up and I'd also be open to connecting.
