this is what can happen in 4 years of planning...

this is a pt cruiser get together ( cruise the falls), this was the 4th year for it ( I attended 2 times )...

over a 600 showed up...

[ChinoCharles]

Someone take this one by the balls and find a spot for us to chill out, say, next May/June? With that much notice EVERYONE better be there!

[Jerkratt]

very true we should figure out something special for coming one like 1 of a kind sticker or something lol

+ its like a 6 and a half hour drive... wont mind at all tho lol

[uncleyaris]

The drive would be worth it!! We could always visit the Casino after!!!

[Jerkratt]

lol

Do you need a passport to get back into the US yet?

[Jerkratt]

[Black Yaris]

The CAnadian side is much better, no offence to the US guys, but there are places on the US side too i'm sure!

I live in Michigan, and the wife and just came back across Canada from a trip to Niagra Falls. You don't have to have a passport, but I would certaintly recommend it. It took us 3 1/2 hours to get through the checkpoint coming back into the US from Canada. Their pretty strict (for obvious reasons). I think if you can hold off till later at night, the line shouldn't be so bad.

[A Sexy Chilean]

Im up for it. Although should we discriminate between the hatches and the sedans?

[tiksman]

I just got back from there. Verry nice on the Canadian side.

[Thotprawsis]

The Canadian side is way cooler. My wife and I have been there several times. We absolutely love it over there. I think you would have a better shot at organizing a meet down by Niagara on the lake.

[uncleyaris]

There's some sick area by cliftonhill. And there's a big box type plaza up Lundy's Lane perfect for a meet!!

None taken... I've been to Niagra Falls and the Canadian side is better. Although I was surprised at some of the hostility towards us for being American (isolated incident, I'm sure).

Stupid question time... if there is a planned meet, would it be for all Yaris owners, or more specifically for people who mod theirs?

[YarisTom73]

I thought any Yaris love was good?! :laugh:

[Jerkratt]

i would think for anyone on this site weather ur modded or not

[Thotprawsis]

+1
It would be cool to meet a lot of the people on this site!

[Slummy]

I would go for sure, just need notice due to school and work.

[uncleyaris]

At my meets, even sedans are welcomed, lol. Meets are a great place to see the mods, encourage those to see what/how can be done, And from my experience I've met some great people how share the passion. I just don't wanna do alot of work for a 10-20 car meet, when I live 1.5 hr from The border myself. I've been one both sides and would be more comfortable doing the work for a Canadian side meet.

[MarkBen]

I believe we were planning a trip to Niagra Falls for next year any how. That would be awesome if I could coincide the two. I think it'd be a cool experience...

[Jerkratt]

eyah ill bring my wife and kid :)

geuss you did not read the previous post? No you do not need a passport now, but they are making it hard if you do not..... if you read thought the quotes I have above it will give you all the info you need :)

[Nutzoids]

I hear weed is legal in Canada...

I'M IN!

:evil:

[alhope34]

Not legal...just "decriminalized"

Anyway, I'm in for sure! I love small road trips like that.

[wufai]

I didn't know if I posted here yet but please count me in!

[ChinoCharles]

Hey uncleyaris, I think you have ample interest. Set this sucker up!

[Nutzoids]

[QUOTE=alhope34;125289]Not legal...just "decriminalized"QUOTE]

Good enough for me!

:evil:

[uncleyaris]

As I speak, I've already started the ground work, and hope to get a local toyota sponsor. In the area there is camping/motels. There is many things to do in the area. Would the Americans be ok with Memorial Day weekend?

[ChinoCharles]

My guess is that that wouldn't work out so well since Memorial day is so family oriented. Maybe the weekend before or after?

[Slummy]

Memorial day might be tough. how about the first weekend in june, like the 6th-8th, that way we can watch the Canadian GP. Kimi Raikkonen FTW!

Now there is an idea.

[Slummy]

Did a quick Google maps search.....maybe I sould have done that first.

Can one of our Canadian friends confirm the distance from Niagara to Montreal?

[uncleyaris]

6 hrs min

[uncleyaris]

Don't worry about the date now, I'll work on the things needed first then post a poll for dates. I'm thinking that maybe July would be good so people on thighter budgets could camp ($22 a night) rather than get a hotel room since the nights are nicer.

OK, now I'm definitely going to have to get that Yaris tent.

[uncleyaris]

I say buy a huge one and drive the car right into it and sleep beside her, lol

[ChinoCharles]

I prefer the real thing. :biggrin: :bellyroll:
