Hey Flag folks!

Besides the Taco and 4R, we also have a Cooper. anyone know of a reputable shop that works on BMW/Mini in Flag?

 

I've used Hurst a bunch because thats where we take the work trucks. Wife has a older Honda Odyssey, I've also been told Heaths is good for import vehicles.

 

Ken's Import Service is one I've used in the past with good luck.

 

I need help again. I need a spot to store my rv from May 1 - Sept 30. I boondock 10-14 days a month in the summer. I have been using Woody Mt for the last couple of years but they changed their policies and will not reserve a spot. I prefer the west side of town. I have called Flagstaff ranch and route 66 storage......full. Thanks for any help.

 

There’s an outdoor storage on Huntington across from Walmart

 

Great find! There is no listing for that business, I did street view google and got the number. I will call on Monday and report back. Thank You!!!

 

Hello everyone,

The wife and I are on a big mission touring right now and she really wants to see the Red canyon slot (peek-a-boo) just outside of Kanab.

Has anyone been out there recently?

Google is kind enough to have street view all the way out there, it looks pretty tame but a fair amount of sand.

I am in a stock OR DCLB, anyone with experience think I'll be fine?

I've posted this same question over in the Utah thread but it seems a bit sleepy over there...

TIA

 

I've been there, stock 2016 TRDOR.

You'll be fine. Enjoy!

 

Thank you! Looking forward to it!

 

DOT date is 1615. So, its old. However completely usable as a spare to get you off the trail.
Bottle of Proper12 or 12pk of Shiner Bock and its yours.

Thanks buddy, pleased to report got there and back without any issues, so impressed with what these trucks can do!

 

We’ll that was an adventure yesterday, on the way there we took the northern most route heading east then returned by heading south then west.

The route in was just passable in a stock truck, we were high cantered on sand a couple of times but thankfully we were carrying enough speed.
The route out was practically a Hwy in comparison to the route in!

Another amazing day in UT/AZ!

Oh yeah… saw a Californian Condor which was pretty cool!

 

Glad it worked out!

They are certainly awesome, but my oh my can they be made better.

Took the truck out near Roosevelt to canyoneer two canyons in that area this past Saturday.

It was packed with 5 people, plus the truck was also loaded with all the gear and food/water we would need for the trip.

The ~30 miles we had to do offroad were so easy. 40-60 mph over cattle guards and through rutted sections and over small washouts. The entire time it was incredibly stable and it simply ate everything up that I threw at it, no matter the speed. Didn't air down for this section, which would have simply made it even better.

This was the first long and fast dirt section I had experienced since installing the Hammer Hangers.

The combo of the shocks, leafs, bumps, and HH have turned this machine into something serious offroad, even with it being massively heavy.

Obligatory pictures of the truck and the adventure:
