MOAB Part 1
Loved the video - great scenery, good music, and awesome Jeeps (and people)
Back in the good ol' days, the engineers over at Jeep had a long standing tradition of taking a week off of work, during the Month of May and spending it out in Moab. It was a NO work, NO stress week of wheeling with family and good friends and only vacationers need apply. Unfortunately, this tradition was shelved for a number of reasons and for the better part of 10 years but in 2017, our good friend Jim Repp, the Vehicle Development Manager for Wrangler, decided it was high time to bring it back to life. After all, when wheeling is in your blood, there are times when you just have to head out to the promised land, off the clock and of course, in your own rig. As luck would have it, Cindy and I were invited to join them and in video series, you'll get to see some of the fun we had with the heart and soul of Jeep! This first part in a 2-Part series highlights our run out on the Poison Spider Mesa and Metal Masher Trails. We hope that you enjoy our presentation.

You know, we were out there at the same time! While it is a bummer that a guy in your group suffered a break down and one that kept you on the trail late into the night, it is funny how those are some of the BEST trips :crazyeyes:
We're so glad that you enjoyed our video :blush:
Oh yeah, Moab is the promised land for sure.
Fantastic video as always. Great to see such a great collection of unique rigs out there also. Even had some Georgia representation
That's right, Dave Logan is in charge of the old iron over at Omix-ADA and they're out in Gerogia!
Thanks! It was a ton of fun having guys out there with some stockish old iron and wheeling them like they mean it. :yup:
Thank you, we're so glad to hear it
You know, there are guys that do wheel out there in flat fenders and totally stock - as in, no roll bars or anything. A good friend of ours is one of them and the stuff he does is NUTS :crazyeyes:
Guess it has been a while for ya :yup:
Thank you
It is a must for all Jeepers :yup:
You'll just have to do it in your new JK :yup:
Do it sooner than later. If you wait too long, you may miss your chance.
Thank you, so glad to hear it :thumb:
Thanks! We're definitely working on part 2 now. :yup:
Awesome, glad to hear we delivered what you were needing
Thank you, we're so glad you enjoyed it.
Nope, it never does. The perfect recipe for a good time

Awesome video as always! Who needs big budgets and state of the art equipment? Eddie, Cindy, Costco and a handycam continue to make yet another great video. Thanks again for taking us along. Lisa and I were out there earlier this year, unfortunately no jeep, and definitely want to get out there with it soon. Though it has a hemi and AWD I don't think the Durango would have made it..haha. Possibly late October or early November if we can swing it. I'm looking forward to part 2.

Thanks Adam, we really appreciate it :blush:
Thank you.
We're so glad you liked it
LOL!! I'll bet you could have taken it out on Hell's Revenge. If I recall, there was a guy who took a Crown Vic out on it before :crazyeyes:
Thanks for the kind words about our video. We always try to do our best with what we've got
Glad you liked it and you really do need to get out there.

Great Vid, thanks for all the work it takes to do that and sharing it with us. After watching I am going to have to call my Jeep friends and plan a run to Moab. Its been 2 yrs since we have been and I am ready to go again. We have been talking about going during Easter Safari but not sure if dealing with the crows is worth it. I know you guys have been to it, what is your take on the crowds. It just seems to me that it is something we need to do at least once. Sorry old man rambling again. Thanks again for all the hard work and sharing with us.

If you're with a small enough group, the crowds aren't too bad during EJS and in some ways, can be a lot of fun. If you're with a pretty good size group, it can be a hassle for sure especially in town like when going to a restaurant. For me personally, I typically have to go to EJS because of work but I prefer being there off season. It's nice to be out there when you can have the whole place to yourself.

Just had a chance to watch the video. Love it! Thank you both for all the work you do on these and sharing them with the rest of us. :thumb: I saw on youtube that you have several more videos in the works right now. As always I'm really looking forward to them! :beer:
Glad to hear you liked the video and you know we always have projects in the works.
