Hey folks! So I wanted to carry over an idea that I saw from the Toyota Tacoma forums. Not sure where it originated but it was definitely a popular thread within different regions of the US. They called it "Tacomaworld Express".

The idea behind it was to help members either buy or sell parts and cut out the shipping cost by using other members to transport it to a certain area. I have sold, bought and transported many different things off this thread. Obviously, you need to do your due diligence so you know you aren't dealer with a scammer (which seems to be a BIG issue in the BMW community).

Here is a thread for the SoCal to NorCal thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/...xpress.238005/

To start this off, I am offering my transportation services to anyone that is interested. I am taking a trip up the coast with my lady in my F30 on Oct. 9th - 11th. We will be driving from San Diego up to Monterey (first stop) and then up to San Francisco and maybe Sacramento. Because I am driving the F30, I am only limited to cabin and trunk space. I can either bring stuff up to Norcal or bring them back (as long as it's not super out of the way).

I hope we can help some members with this!

pretty cool idea, I would like to help as well. Live in the bay area, but I rarely go all the way to SoCal...maybe half-way down to like Pismo Beach area.

Awesome!

Hopefully we can help someone on the forums!

Bump before my trip to NorCal next week. If anyone needs something picked up or dropped off, please let me know!

This actually sounds like a pretty good idea. Maybe we can also go through a third party verification system like the "TruYou" member thing on OfferUp to give clients reassurance.

Great idea!

I will be heading to The Bay Area again with an empty car. If anyone needs anything brought up or brought down, please let me know! Buy me dinner and we can call it even! Heading up Thursday morning, returning back to San Diego Sunday (11/19 - 11/22).

Great idea
I have some “packages” wrapped in tape that I need picked up. It’s about 2 kilos worth of stuff. 😉

I make it to So Cal once in a while so this is a great thread/service.

Bumping an old thread. I am driving from Seattle to San Diego and have room for stuff if anyone needs stuff from Seattle to Bay Area brought down to SoCal.

I leave Seattle Oct. 8th
