All good things eventually wrap up and this great adventure just did. There are many special moments and firsts that I continue to experience thanks to Eddie and Cindy. Among them: jeeping to the bottom of the grand canyon, jeeping through monument valley, camping at lake powell, wheelin in moab in the mud and snow, and different uses for rubber boots.
Just as rewarding is sharing those expiriences with great people and making new friends.
Safe travels home. And special thanks again to Eddie and Cindy for their passion in making these adventure happen
They left without you.

Jason, you and Amy were a ton of fun! We really enjoyed getting to know you two and all the laughs we had! Thanks for being cool roomies!
Update:
Well as most of you know but some where not there, I am back up and running again. I got a call Friday morning that it was complete! So I hopped on the first fight to grand junction and was off.
The verdict is they replaced crank shaft sensor, cam shaft sensors, crank shaft, cylinder heads on 4 and 6, camshaft phaser, camshaft intake and exhaust solenoids, coil, plugs, all gaskets, oil, coolant, filters, etc (I think that's it...). Awesome, runs great...right? Nope.
It drove great for about 900 miles but the last 100-150 were a little rough. The next morning I checked my oil because I had talked to grand junction about its oil consumption. It was a full 2 quarts but closer to 2.5 low. This is in 1000 miles after a brand new oil change. I topped it off like I usually do, checked everything else and started driving home. About 60 miles from home I start feeling a click again. My gut says it won't last long so it will be back in the dealership tomorrow.
The saga continues...

Your motor is shot, they changed the same on mine. It lasted a couple days. Plus side, you got it got it home!
I would clean that intake before it goes back in.

Damn...I was hoping it wasn't the case but we'll see.
Ya that's the plan tonight once it's cool.
Your profile says your running a ripp sc, if so won't this mess with your warranty?

I am...I think we will be coming to a crossroads soon. Up to this point everyone has been ok with it. I've had the head gasket replaced, heads / cylinders checked before this latest problem and it's all been "ok".
