    But the easy trails out there look to be a bit too easy from what I am used to seeing up here. However I am not used to the amount of traction on the slick rock, should be a good experience.

    And I don't think a little war scar from Moab is all that bad, just don't want to roll it.

    Hey lttlbdy, not this year but I WILL be there next year. Already have a friend who wants to ride with me. Going to cruise the West coast on the way back and visit a bunch of freinds, planning on taking a 3 week road trip vacation.

    OK Linda and I talked about the Las Vegas meet and here is the reason we will see you all in Moab.

    I used to spend at least one week a month in Vegas for work. My usual place to stay was the Orleans but I have stayed at a number of other Casinos. I would often take Linda with me and to tell you the truth we are kind of burned out on the place.

    But Moab that is another story! We never get tired of going. Not in the 35 years we have been exploring southern Utah. We would much rather be wheeling any of the trails than sitting at a table gambling.

    Now if everyone was driving in and there was a day planned to explore Red Canyon then that might interest us.

    Don't get me wrong, I understand the lure of Las Vegas it just does not appeal to us.

    Other than the Seafood Buffet at the Rio! Now that is worth the trip all by itself.

    Thumbs up

    SWEET! Thanks!

    Getting my winch this Sunday and making rock sliders in a couple weeks. Then will have to throw down on those HD tie rods, and start saving, see if I will have enough for the ARB install. Funny, but I am already getting antsy to go, AND IT'S OVER A YEAR AWAY!

    Alaska, wish you would consider going THIS year and forgo some of those mods since you do NOT need them for Moab. There is always plenty of assistance on ALL the trails and Moab is NOT about testing to see how far your rig will go (which usually causes breakage and delays the run for the other 15+ rigs).

    Moab is about enjoying the capabilities of the VX, stock or otherwise and meeting a great bunch of Isuzu enthusiasts. Preparation is good but doing it is far, far better. Who knows what could happen to you in a year's time? Life is best lived right NOW (IMHO) as one never knows what is just around the corner that might prevent you from attending next year.

    Every year there are those on the fence that when they see the pics, videos and stories from the event, kick themselves repeatedly and talk about next year and the next and the next....
