I was open to either week but I think now we should stick with the later dates. Arcobarco, Bartman and myself recently made our lodging accommodations for the 14th-21st.

Are you all staying at the Apache? or just some of you or none of you are staying at the Apache?

[VXorado]

We're all sharing a house for the week. Good news, Amy and baby Riley will be attending the Moab adventure this year... the house will be a bit more accommodating.

Thinking about making an appearance. Are there bypasses around extreme obstacles for mild off-roaders with original factory suspensions and wheels?

I took my Stock VX up last year, there are plenty of trails a stock VX can do and there are by passes too. The trails are all rated for difficulty and most of the group is familiar with the trails and can tell you which ones would be good for you.

Come and join us, it is a lot of fun.

Trails of ALL levels available, everything from the mildest farm track...to extreme.
Many VX's with stock set ups have taken part..just discuss trails with those that know them..You'll be fine.

BUT..be aware.. be warned..be prepared .. to go home and start ordering new coils/bigger tires..etc etc..
..cause its infectious !

I received an Email from Sharon today regarding my room reservation. She's still there.

You'll be surprised what your stock VX is capable of.

The bylaws do not prohibit attendance by other makes of vehicle. Nor do they prohibit any specific type of warning device.

Appreciate the encouragement. Was considering either my good ole VX or brand new 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, ordered less than a week ago (if this dealer honors our agreed upon price). Went through ordering a 2014 Trailhawk in 2014, but walked away when that dealer decided he wanted more than the agreed upon price. Hate the car buying experience.

Will hand it to Jeep for honesty in advertising, though. In their promotional videos of Trailhawks on the Rubicon Trail, Lake Tahoe, California, you can clearly see one sustained damage to its front fascia, two 4" dents and a 6" tear, plus lots of front and side scrapes. I have no intention of scratching or denting my new set of wheels or my good ole VX.

I think we will stay at Apache, I hope I can get a kitchenette this year.

From my most recent communique:

"Larry,
I was able to move the dates for you. We have you now arriving on Saturday May 14 for
8 nights checking out on May 22. Let us know if you have any other problems."

So there ya have it.

Thanx for get'n me off my butt on this Mudcat.

FYI, I wasn't annoyed with you last we talked, I was in my small office finishing up the paperwork when you called, so I may have sounded as such...distressed may have a more appropriate interpretation.

Hey you are welcome, I just figured you were just being cantankerous in your old age.

[Ldub]

Oh, make no mistake....I'm that as well.
