I was wanting to organize a statewide meet for this year but just didn't have enough time to plan it and start getting the word out. So I am getting started on planning this meet once again and aim to have the meet sometime in June 2010.
I think it is pretty safe to say that the best central location for a Texas state meet would be Austin. Pretty big city and has lots to offer. I am still searching for meeting places where we could gather and then cruise to our event. I am trying to keep this meet family friendly and trying to plan something for the kids to do. Would 6 months be enough time for everyone to prepare for this event?
This post is to just see how many interested people we have and what everyone thinks.

Great idea Eric....and much support is needed for this type of event. One thing is for sure....you need to pick the hotel or hotels and so everyone attending can book their rooms soon. You don't want to have people booking hotels 2 weeks before the event.

Fugg yeah I'm down! The further ahead it's planned, the better for me to drive that bad boy back if I'm still working in Cali. Either way, that's an event I'd even fly straight into Austin to attend if it's large scale.

I thought June would be good cause its like the begining of summer and we have the Beach Bash in August which is also a big meet that I want everyone possible to make. June gives everybody 2 months before the next big meet which is the Beach Bash.

I was thinking June 26. I don't have a whole lot of interested people yet from the other Tundra forums. I will go do a quick head count of how many are down for this. I am also working on getting to group rates from a couple of different hotels in Austin. Here is a headcount of how many people voted and from what site. These numbers are as of 12/1/09 and do not include my vote. GCT: 8 yes 0 no 1 maybe Toyota Tundra Forum: 4 yes 0 no 2 maybe Texas Truck Scene: 1 yes 3 no 1 maybe Toyota Nation: No Responses Tundra Chat: No Responses Tundra Solutions: 2 yes 0 no 1 maybe Tundra Talk: 0 yes 0 no 1 maybe Tundra Geeks: 2 yes 1 no 1 maybe That is 17 yes and 7 maybe. We need to shoot for at the very least 50 trucks. If got 26 or so for the regional meet this past August, 50 trucks for a statewide meet should be nothing. Maybe if we can get some flyers made up and get them to the Toyota dealerships in the surrounding areas might help. Maybe email dealers around the state spreading the word. I will need some help guys and gals. Can't do it by myself. Team work got us a good meet this past August so we gotta do it again.

keep in mind that most of those votes are from the same people who post on different sites. as I posted on TundraTalk I think we need to set the date in stone. That way people will have a date they can get off from work and plan for their trip. good work Eric... keep it up broseph!!!

I'll see what I can do to get the word out at N. Houston Toyota dealership when I'm back again in December. This sounds pretty big and thanks again, Eric.

perhaps someone that's good at smooth talking can see if we can swing a group discount at a hotel? might be worth a shot. I'll be honest, I'm not really that good at that kind of thing....just a thought

I work some in Austin anyways. I could probably make it. Sounds cool. I know some good places to eat as well. Don't know how fancy of hotel everyone would want, but I found best bang for buck is Super8 just north of downtown...nice breakfast.

I guess we are setting the date as June 19th. As far as what we are going to do and where we would meet up is still up in the air. I need some input from you guys. I want to do something fun for everyone and that is family friendly. One idea I had was ending up at Main Event in Austin. They have really good package deals and there is something for everyone to do there. Thought maybe we would meet up around Lake Travis somewhere and have our meet and greet then take a little cruise around the Lake Travis area and end up at Main Event. These are just ideas I have and would like to get ideas from you guys. Let me know what you got and remember to keep it family friendly.

I'll do what I can to make the meet but can't guarantee the truck will be in state so make room for another type of Yota just in case. I'll go with the flow...but of course I want eye candy! Still can be family friendly while enjoying it all. Eric's idea sounds great to me.
