This eBay one looks decent

Oh no, my supercharger got in the way.

 

You know I gotta bring it up to make myself feel better about having 0/10 offroad gear

 

You did BLB and Hell's Revenge in yours almost stock. That beats out a good many people here...

Honest truth: Never done Moab in the truck. But I have rampaged a good majority of that on mountain bike. I do really wanna do Fins and Things and a few others. Have no desire to take my own truck up Hell's.

 

I'd love to do Fins and the rim trail one of these days. Hell's really isn't that bad, a decent spotter and you'd be fine! Just don't let the hot tubs tempt you...

 

I'd make a fins trip with you. Been to moab a few times, but after a full day on bikes coming off Burro pass, there isn't time or energy to take the truck out for some fun.

 

Fins and things is pretty easy yeah? I haven't done that one yet.

 

Depends who you ask, and skill level. I've even heard a few people say that HR is easier than Fins, just the HR climb that is scary.

But the guide books say Fins is easier, so I'd say it is doable. I'd probably pick up a pair of sliders first.

 

+1 on the sliders, they're a lot cheaper than replacing a rocker panel.

Moab is such cool country biking hiking or crawling, it's like a 3.5 hr drive and we're on some Martian playland.

 

ZNP Angel's Landing. Yesterday.

 

Looks like beautiful weather!

 

I finally got the video done from our trip to Capitol Reef NP last month. Seriously, if anyone asks, tell them Capitol Reef sucks. Dirt roads, no crowds, and amazing views. The loop through Cathedral Valley was my favorite stretch of dirt we've put under our tires.

It was hella good weather. Great day to be outside.

 

Damn...Capital Reef NP looks freakin' awesome. I'm going to add that to my list, "Places to go".

 

Gorgeous, great vid! You got me putting it on my list too. How long is the Cathedral Valley loop?

Did I see "TCMBST" at 7:02?

 

It is, and you should haha.

Thanks! It's almost 60 miles from the Hartnet Rd river crossing to exiting by Caineville. We hauled, thinking that it would take us longer and we'd lose daylight. The rangers told us to plan on like 4 to 5 hours, but we finished much sooner than that. So take your time and enjoy the off shoot hikes. It was so rad. The engravings were from the Pioneers, so I think it said CoveredWagonBeast. (That's my dad joke for the day)

 

Hey, newbie here! Looking for someone in Utah that might have a lower bumper valance aka this cheap black bumper piece laying around. Just got the truck and discover mine was cracked. Someone on the free thread encouraged me to reach out to my regional thread. Alternatively would be interested in a low profile push bar for the right price.

 

I would suggest save your money for a steel or aluminum high clearance bumper.
