Thats because it's an "unofficial" run, kindly organized by Todd Adams. IIRC, there is a signup for it somewhere around here. Obviously, I do not run on that as I do not own a VX, but a cousin Amigo.

Wed: 3-D
Thu: Top of the World
Fri: No trail, resting, enjoying the campground (cause I didn't want to attempt any of the trails on this day, Cliffhanger sounds like a bit too much for me)
Sat: Fins & Things

I'm one of those who really doesn't want to bang up the ol' VX. I love this vehicle, it's awesome.
Good choices, that should give you quite a flavor for the Moab area. Although two excellent choices for you on Friday would be Cliffhanger, it has been downgraded in recent years, and that has Fernando leading who is one of the best trail leaders out there. Im confident in that choice for you.
Second choice is Poison Spider Mesa, with Randii leading that, I dont see an issue there either. I know the VX is up to the challenge, and after a couple days of playing. I would imagine you will be too.

Oh, one more thing: I guess I'm gonna get a CB for this, any recommendations? Both for the unit and antenna and where/how to mount it?
I have the Cobra ST75WX, and the remote unit is installed under the console with the unit hung from the sunroof gutter with a clip.

Under $100

with one of these:

any truck stop will have them or go to:

For the antenna, a magnetic mount on the roof works pretty well. tough on the VX with all the lower body cladding.

Todd has also posted a link to CB sources in this thread IIRC.
