I’m interested but need to clear it with my CFO aka wife.

MOAB!!! Can’t wait!

**R3DLEG** · January 7, 2022, 7:24pm

I’m in! Just made reservations at MOAB Rim Campground for 1-6 Oct. Prob won’t be there the whole time with you all but, at least get to hang out. Couldn’t get into Canyonlands my rig is too big. That said, the park has group tent sites and cabins too.

**TRLR8D1** · January 8, 2022, 4:16am

I’m definitely interested. Moab is on the list for the new build.

I’d be interested to tag along with everyone. Could supplement the gas and food bill for someone. I just have no real way to get my TJ out there - and I ain’t going to drive it and eat the tires off.

**Gogged** · January 11, 2022, 1:41am

Come on Frank its only 1995 miles each way!!

**TRLR8D1** · January 11, 2022, 2:47am

I am very interested in the Moab trip for Oct. 4 thru 8. There are companies that will ship a Jeep for about $700-$800 more than the cost of driving.

**Gogged** · January 11, 2022, 10:47am

Not a bad idea, some have talked about doing that in the past and just flying out there

**Gogged** · January 11, 2022, 10:49am

Have you broached this topic w CEO Natalia?

**BullRunMike** · January 12, 2022, 12:36am

I have and she said it all depends on when she has her surgery stuff. I will be off of work for at least 2-3 weeks while she recovers.

**TRLR8D1** · January 13, 2022, 1:13am

I have already contacted two car carrier services and confirmed a Jeep with 40’s will fit on the truck. I would imagine we could get a group discount for one pick up/drop off point. I have a place in Moab that the rigs can be delivered.

**Gogged** · January 13, 2022, 2:00am

Not bad Chuck, anyone else interested in flying out and picking up your jeep? Flights aren’t too bad

**Jeepride** · January 15, 2022, 12:10am

How much is the transport? Just wondering, I will drive with the camper.

**TRLR8D1** · January 16, 2022, 2:35am

The transport is $1,879 and I confirmed their trucks can accommodate Jeeps with 40” tires. It takes 6 days to get the Jeep to Moab from NOVA.

**Gogged** · January 16, 2022, 11:08am

Thanks Chuck. Anyone interested in doing this other than Julio?

**Digger** · January 16, 2022, 12:41pm

This is intriguing. I may interested in the transport option.

**Tom_Exp626** · January 16, 2022, 3:45pm

We are interested. A lot depends on if we are in VA still. We could join mid-convoy.

-Tom

**Gogged** · January 16, 2022, 7:21pm

$1879 round trip or each way Chuck?
