I would like to attend once though just to see what its about,and say ive been there and done that. :)

We did easter jeep safari in Moab last year,that was a blast! this year we are going the week after just because thats the way the calendar works out for week vacation.

I've had mine for six years. It's been good to me, I use to commute with it 95 miles one way, every day. It's not much zuki either anymore, mainly rust....and holes :shock:
