WTH? I thought you were always planning to go on the 26th. :confused: I'm hoping to leave around 5-6pm.

No. Always had been on the 27th. Regardless, I am going much earlier in the day than 5-6pm. I dont want to get there in the dark.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning, be in Moab for lunch (with 10,000 Jeepers).

See you guys there.

I forgot to add that it snowed an inch at my house this morning......but the temp is 63 degrees in Moab right now.

Forecast looks like mid sixties all next week (for now, anyway).

We had 15.5's and were always replacing junk in the front.

CVs, tie rods and center links when bent or broken, bring teh sucketh.

I just got back.

Didn't break anything (did bend some steel, but nothing that matters - damn trailing arms, I hate everything that hangs down on this truck). We ran Moab Rim, Kane Creek, Strike Ravine and Steel Bender.

Complete kick in the ass.......The H2 rocked.

These BF Goodrich KM2's are the best truck tire I've ever owned. The flex is unreal and the traction is outstanding! Absolutely great tire!

Wish I could say the same. :mad: :mad:

- Hub assembly
- Steering Rack
- CV axle (busted on I-70 on the way home) :rant:

Truck is still in SLC at the dealership. I have to drive back next weekend to get it. :crying:

Still had a great time when I wasn't dealing with breakage. Good to see everyone again although I wish I could have run some more trails.

Can you get it shipped? It would probably be the same as gas & airfare.

There wasn't a flight out until 10pm and no non-stops to ANY of the Bay Area airports. :lame: I wouldn't have arrived until this morning.

I ended up renting a car for the week. Cheaper than flying, unlimited miles, plus I have something to drive to work. And most of it will be reimbursed through warranty.
