    hahah, i know. Moab is on the endless to-do list.

    your commute is awe inspiring. i just wish i had an area like that to drive thru between work and home. right now im fixing to go sit thru 45 minutes of bumper to bumper madness :crapstorm:

    edit: making an assumption here, you are going home from the airport(work)?

    Yeah I am based in Grand Junction, CO so I do periods of being gone and then being home. Moab is about a hour and half drive...This is along the River Road Hwy 128. It follows the Colorad River and then ends up in Moab. there are several nice long Trails that come off this Highway.

    The Guided training sounds cool if im in town I would be interested for sure. I have yet to go out to BFE so I could not tell ya what its like. It looks like cruise moab will be hangin out there this year. Looking at pics it looks like it will be great for all levels of interest.

    Thanx to all you have checked them out. I am not trying to make you jealous I am just giving you some motivation to make it out here one day. It truly is another planet in Moab and it is very suitable for all Toyotas!!
