    Lets do it Kahuna! Im pretty sure we can find you a spot.

    Yeah the $3 a gallon has me thinking about it all the time. I have limited my trips to Cali and up north because of that. People complain that Europe has it worse but I dont think they travel as much since all countries are fairly small. The US is huge and public transportation is not a popular way to travel.

    Hope to see you there Kahuna.

    How about a non VXer?

    Could a non-VX tag along, how about a ex-Isuzu ower?

    I went to the dark side and bought a Jeep TJ

    Well not to pollute this site with Jeep stuff but I thought you might want know what has been said about Powerline Trail (Hackberry Creek), here are some quotes from AzJVC:

    This trail is truly a challenge for the moderate 4-wheeler. Some type of locking device is recommended, as well as clearance and 31' tires.

    The trail is a solid 3.5+. There are numerous rock gardens that cannot be bypassed. Plenty of challenges to keep the heart rate up. Don't take a stock vehicle unless you want damage and breakage. The scenery is amazing!

    I know 2 guys that ran this trail in late spring, I will see how bad they thought it was.

    As for me, it looks like the wife and I will be doing Broken Arrow trail the weekend before so I doubt I will be able to make this one. I will keep my eyes open for your next run, I have always enjoyed wheeling with this bunch.

    Myself , Victor and Jeff ran it last Fall. It is a fun trail and I think 3.5 is a little high on the rating. It is definately doable in a stock 4 wheeler.

    An addendum just to razz the "Jeepies"...It's a 3.5+ for a Jeep, not as difficult for slightly modded VX's.
