By any stretch thats a bargain vacation though.

Heck yeah...you don' wanna know what it is costing to go to Germany this summer...airfare alone is $1300

[orion]

$580 in gas with a budget of $600. and gas would have to go up a lot to stop me from going next year.

Yeah, It was worth every cent, that's for sure. I would have been cheaper if we would have camped the whole time. But, the wife likes the Gonzo so I can't complain.

lmfao I would rather not say but what did we decide Zues almost enough for a SAS..... man oh man what luck I have been having oh FUN!
even more luck trying get someone to own up to thier bolt mistake lol.


Actually despite my bad run of luck I had a blast. Cant wait till next year and now I am planning way more ahead than I did.


I dont even know gas I just remeber what I spent on repairs and thats it... how sad But like the comercial goes. Spending time with friends having fun... "PRICELESS!"

[Dumke]

Yeah Rob, I definitely think you could have paid for an SAS by now! What do you have in suspension, steering pieces, and repairs... $4000? $2000 in wheels and tires? Now that's commitment!

UM well maybe $5k wheel's lift and all for all then add repairs on top of that but that is my guestimate.


But ya its dedication and love it. As far as SAS or not dunno havent really thougth about it. I know I want a SC tho and well crap outta luck on that one. Choices, choices... what mod next...

Total gas cost to Moab $0.00

Not going and having to look at all the fun everyone had....Envy

I should start saving for the trip next year now, I just saw the news tonight and they are talking about oil at $200 a barrel in 2 years which would mean gas at $7.00 a gallon. So with that dandy news here is to Moab 2009.

[Ldub]

Well, there's the $734.00 I know about for sure that's "etched in plastic"...

Then there's the $??? that I paid in ca$h money...prolly another $2-300.00

Best mileage recorded...17.52

Average mileage guesstimate...12-13, we had 3-4.5 days out of 5.5 travel days where we were pushin' against a headwind...& I'm pretty sure it's up-hill both ways.

The bargain of the trip was my half of the Red Rock Lodge bill...$170.50 for six nights lodging...thanks for wangling the group discount Chi-Chi...you're the Best!

Speaking of my little Sistr'...got a call from Her & Gill this afternoon, they had mech. probs in Ohio & needed Merlins phon #...her water pump pulley came loose somehow & shredded her serp belt. Merlin (THE MAN) was $100.00 cheaper, & four days faster than the local Isuzu stealership.

All in all, a GREAT time, made all the better when we found a little place in the Black Hills, called "Claw, Antler & Hide Co." Where I scored a couple of Skulls...1 Lynx, 2 Bobcat & an assortment of Badger claws & Porcupine quills.
Combined with the petrified Shark teeth (yes, I found the missing package) I purchaced in Moab, should make for an interesting "look" at next years gathering...
