TRS Banner Across North America 2012 - Alaska to Key West Florida (OFFICIAL)

[Jim Oaks]

That would be awesome. Once we get it to Key West, we can always try to run it up the east coast.

Ab_slack, I'm in NW Tennessee, near clarksville. I can meet up with you pretty much anywhere from Memphis to Nashville. If you take I-40, I can meet you along the way, but Nashville would keep you from back tracking. Same with coming out of Texas on I-10, you can hit either I-55 through Memphis to I-40 to Nashville, or I-10 to I-65 to Nashville. If your route is another way, let me know...

Sounds like a plan to me. I was expecting to run up rt 40 to Knoxville so Nashville vicinity would work out well.

I am expecting to hit Wichita around the 27th or 28th so Nashville will be around 29th or 30th as my best guess. I'll keep my progress posted.

Now is there anyone in Oklahoma, Arkansas or TN along the way who can get down to near the rt 40 corridor who wants to meet up to sign it? Not absolutely sure if I will proceed to Dallas after Wichita and then up to little rock, or if I will go up to Oklahoma City and then on to Little Rock. I am leaning towards the latter. I have reasons to go either way.

 

[RangerSVT]

I've pretty much caught all the members from Memphis to Nashville, from Evansville, Indiana to north Mississippi. There might be one or two in Arkansas. Hit me up when you're about a week out. If i don't respond here, pm me...

I have not kept up with this banner. I've been in Dallas. Plus the B2 is rebuild/demolition mode.

Where did the banner map go, I had it bookmarked and found it listed above but comes up with "error 404 - not found"

Ok, here is what I'm seeing. Waffles has it currently, with country001 closest to him near ok city. If it goes through springfield where there's a few members, to STL where there's a few more members, most of which hasn't signed it, through indy to ft wayne, across to akron, south to Cincinnati through columbus, to lexington, I can pick it up from there and run it south to ATL. Looks like a promising move since going south has stalled. So how about it?

[Jim Oaks]

Akron? I'll sign it if it's in Akron (but will I want to let go of it...)

 

[RangerSVT]

You have to, Jim. Its for the good of the banner! I was looking at which way the banner could travel with the shortest amount of distance between each of the members passing it off so it would have the least amount of stall time. I'll close up my shop for a day or two if I have to, to keep it moving...

When you talk about going through Wichita. Are you talking about Wichita Kansas or Wichita Falls Tx? If your coming through Wichita Ks area, and If your driving your 1st gen Bronco and have mechanical issues in my area Let me know, I can help ya out.

Wow, that's an awesome offer! It's nice to know a member could travel somewhere and get help from another member if they're in that members area.

I drive my 87 ranger to and from work everyday...40 mile round trip.
Runs like a top, and never had a issue that left me stranded on the side of the road. BUT that being said, I probably would never take a long road trip in it! If I had to take a road trip in it , ( feel like a roadkill episode LOL) it would be nice If I knew of help along the way if the need arises.

I wanted to help move the banner when it was near my area but the timing was bad for me at the time.

 

[Jim Oaks]

Not to get to far off topic...

'83 Ford Ranger with a Duraspark and manual transmission. I'd drive that anywhere if I had it. Very little to go wrong with it.

So let me understand this;

MastuhWaffles has had the banner since 05/28/14?

Is it in Wichita Falls Texas, or is it in Dallas Texas?

Is there seriously NOBODY that can get this banner??

How the hell did we move a banner across Alaska, but we can't get it out of a well populated area like Dallas??

Do we need to start a gas fund for someone willing to make a road trip?

Seriously, I would rather send someone gas money, than to see everyone elses hard work go to waste.

I really want to get it to Florida. If you can get it and get it in to Tennessee, maybe someone could meet up with you and get it headed to Georgia.

Mastuh, I'm still available to get it. You need to message me which weekends you are free.

DG and I have agreed to run it back east to FLorida.

Keep me updated when to get it.
