2014 Rock Therapy - Official Thread

You'll be fine. I don't have skids either and wheeled a bunch of stuff with only s 3 inch lift and 33s. Moab is like off roading on crack. Sooo many trails to choose from.

 

That's what in sayin man! We gotta get as many people back as possible

 

Unless your taking the long way you wont be passing elko. And you have to pitch it to her about the beautiful views. Its really a awesome palce to just spend a week even if your not wheeling.

 

If she goes, she probably can't go the whole week since we're planning on another trip in the summer. If she can go, awesome. If not, then I can really play it by ear and come home whenever. Might even stop by Salt Lake City on the way home since I've never been

 

mmmoab + trailex mmmmm

 

Man you like the long way dont you salt lake is about 5 hours out of the way

 

Mmmoab + gibsons mmmmmmm = owie in the am...

 

Blackstone MA to Moab Utah. 2303 Miles - 33 Hours.

 

According to Google Maps, it is 2 minutes faster to go through Elko and SLC from Union City to Moab, than it is to go through Vegas and St. George. Unless you were going some way not mentioned on Google maps or something

 

had a crew from NJ/PA make it last year... no excuses!

 

should I start the pre orders hahahaha

 

Thats what I saw too. The way I thought in my brain would be best to go would be to take 50 across from Fernley, but it said it was just slower than 80 too.

 

I take HW-50 it's the armpit of Nevada but a hell of a lot faster then 80 or going south.

 

Well it was faster for me I drive to Utah twice a year near salt lake. Maybe it's all the work zones we hit on 80 that makes it longer. I'm really down for anything seeing how we will have trailers 80 might be a better option seeing how there is no gas stations on 50.

 

50 definitely looks like more of a straight shot, but it says it takes 20-25 minutes longer. I'm guessing the speed limit is 65 instead of 75 on I-80 which is why google prefers 80.

 

Yeah i think that's what it is I was flying down it so we made good time

 

Exactly. haha Taking 50 is about 50 less miles than taking 80 according to google so if you can make the same speed you will make better time.

 

highway 50 is 70. But every little town you go through you have to slow down. And there isnt much for fuel out there, and what fuel you do find is pretty spendy.

 

I don't feel so bad about driving 19 hours to moab now.

Trust me, if you haven't been to moab, you haven't lived. So worth any driving distance!
