    Let's help our fellow forum members!

    I saw someone in another thread talking about a BMWCCA book with a large list of names split into different states that one could call if they were stranded in a foreign state while on a road trip etc. He offered up the idea of someone making a digital list easily accessible on a mobile device. So here I am.

    My plan is once I get enough names on this list I can put together a website that is mobile compatible and easily accessible with all the names and numbers there.

    The main thing here is being a community. If you put your name on this list you need to be the type of person to put down whatever you're doing and go help out another forum member in need with no incentive of a reward. At the end of the day this is a community and we should treat it as so.

    Below is a link to a google spreadsheet. Find your state and put your name/city/phone number in the next available box next to your state.

      This is a great idea. I'll send you a PM, I'm involved with the Bmwcca, and it'd be great if we could get them involved too.

        The r3v distress app would be fantastic.

          An app would be great I agree. Lots of views but no names yet

              Most of r3v knows who I am on FB anyways.....besides, my phone is useless as a communication device. I pride myself on being ridiculously difficult to get a hold of.

                  This could be set up much better:

                  | State | City | Name | Phone Number |

                  It will have better architecture and be more usable if you set it up as a "singular" database. (can't remember the correct word)

                          Redid the format with this in mind.

                            There's already a map started somewhere on here from a year or two back. Don't much care to look for it on my phone, but it was started for the same reason

                              Here is one of them.

                              Idea of the map is to see if there are other members in your area that you did not know were out there.
