How's about getting together on the Good Friday holiday on April 18th? Usually this isn't a huge family get together holiday and most people can get away. Since we had the last meet in the west end, I'm suggesting the east end at Eglinton Town Center on Eglinton, just west of Warden. There's a Tim Hortons in this big box shopping center and a Canadian Tire (if its open on Good Friday)just in case somebody needs to pick up some car wax or accessories for their Vibe. We can then can all go to a movie at the multiplex theater in the mall, maybe the Fast & the Furious II will be playing on that weekend.

Well, we had one last month in Mississauga, and it was decided then (since it was cold and snowing), that we would have another meet until we got some warmer weather. However, if you want to organize one sooner (west-end of Toronto preferred)....that would be great.

Well, as much as I enjoyed the first meet (cold and snowing, but I am not going to drive to the East-End of Toronto. Mississauga/Brampton or even Oakville (or Etobicoke), but not further than that.

If we can't agree on the east or west end, we could meet halfway, perhaps 404/weston. There's a Crapy Tire, Timmy's, Futureshop and a bank in case you need extra cash.

I can go for halfway (but my preference is still Brampton/Mississauga. However, 404/Weston would do. I am hoping for a better turnout than the 4 cars we had in March....and unlike today, hopefully no snow, freezing rain, blizzard and/or rain. Sunny, warm and shorts wearing people.

My girlfriend and I will be spending a few days on the Canadian side of Niagra Falls the first week in May. I wonder if any members will be in the area at that time? We will most likely be taking my Vibe up there for its' first long road trip.

Hi everyone,I'm in for meeting up with everyone! Someone take the lead here and give us a date! I'd say the first weekend in May, maybe the Friday night? It had better be nice out by then!!!!!

Although I have no problem with a Friday night, I would suggest a day meet....for two reason:1. It's warmer than at night (at least until summer really hits)2. We can take nicer pics of the meet....

Only problem with the afternoon is that good places to meet are busy! Unless you all want to drive up to Barrie!I'd go for May 3rd or 4th in the afternoon if someone can suggest a good place to meet-up?

The 4th is no good for me. I have a wedding to attend on the 3rd, meaning I'll have a nasty hangover til Monday. How about the weekend after, preferably on the Saturday?

Yipee, looks like we finallly has a consensus on a meet.quote:Sounds good to me. I haven't been in that area too much, is it north or south of the 401? Can someone post directions?Anyone else?KaBoOM, the Weston Rd Centre (at least that's what I think it's called) is just south of the 401, on the east side. Big box plaza, with the Tim Hortons in front just off Weston Rd. If your coming from Barrie, take the 401 west and the first exit off the 400 is Weston Road. Turn south on Weston Rd, and your there at the second stop light.

May 10th sounds good to me.....If it doesn't rain that day (or God forbid snow)....make sure your Vibe's are in showroom condition, since I will be taking pics.

Just a reminder that the meet is coming up! I'm hoping to have my subs installed before then, we'll see!Let's hope we don't have any weather like they had out west, I'm off to Calgary in a few hours and I'm not looking forward to the 65cm of snow they got over the weekend!!

It's a fair drive from Peterpatch, but I'm 50-50 for making it; 70-30 if I get my wheels on (at last!), as I wouldn't want to pass up an opportunity to display my overkill approach to such mods.I've never been to a Vibe gathering; do we get to wear tags with our GenVibe names, or just wait for someone to get close to a Vibe and then introduce ourselves, or..??

It WILL be sunny...It WILL be sunny...(repeat this many times).I'll be there rain or shine. I'm working on my buddy's '78 Vette in the morning, if it's nice he's going to drive it up as well.I'd really like to get my subs in by Saturday, but I don't think it's going to happen.
