    I already have a trailer so that means it would pay for trip and possibly armor.:rolleyes:

    Don't get to excited, it's not a guarantee. We would have to find items that need shipping, from near where we are (or on the way) that have near the same destination as we do. The longer the haul, the better it pays. So when we're ready to do this, I'll start mapping items from and to locations.

    I'm not from Alabama, but I've been considering going in 2017. I'm in AR, so I could potentially jump in the caravan if it works out. Assuming this trip is still being considered...

    It's totally a thing lol. Light wheeling aluminum works. Hardcore wheeling go steel.


    You guys could always come to Rock Therapy. It happens yearly. No dates set yet but sounds like it will be in fall sometime next time around.

    Avoid peak summer months, way too hot. When picking dates check the calendar for Moab for big events. Don't go during Easter Jeep or holiday weekends if you are avoiding crowds.

    Bring most of your supplies. It's a small town. They do have a City Market, Family Dollar and other things but you'd be hard pressed to find something like a bathing suit unless you drive an hour to Grand Junction. Lol

    That's the company I was talking about. Uship.com

    That's useful info! Thank you. I've seen a few meets within a couple states that I've considered. I'll have to start showing up to more of them.

    I just found this thread! Do you guys have dates yet? I'm transferring (don't know where yet) summer of 2017 and if this was early enough like Feb or March of 2017 I could be down.

    I am seriously down for this just need to know when. My timeline is pretty slim this coming new year with moving and I suppose my GF is expecting me to produce a ring sometime in the near future if I expect her to move with me next summer :rofl:so if the planets align I'd love to go.

    For me the EARLIER the better. I'd even like for it to be this year...

    That's cool this year would be pushing it still. I'd like to have sliders before I went to Moab for sure. I'll keep en eye on this thread and if the date selected works I'm in like sin.

    Awesome man, if you want some sliders hit up Taylor Welding as we mentioned in the Alabama thread. He just went full time starting yesterday on his business so he should be able to start getting some good turn around time for people.
