After putting in a 20 driving day on Thursday, it couldn’t have been possible with out how unbelievable that Ram and trailer are, we felt we deserved a quick little test run up Holy Cross.

Both Jeff and my Jeeps were untested after the CO upgrades and there’s not a better place for it.

We burned up and back in 3.5 hours with no issues at all with the new installs. Those COs make such a difference smoothing out the trail.
Here are a couple pictures from the run.

Then loaded the Jeeps back up on the trailer and headed for Moab. What an awesome day!

Windshield banner mysteriously showed up in the middle of the trail at Holy Cross City. What's up with that? Air mail?

Actually not really. I was just focused on unfucking myself. Bhaner got me squared back up and off we went. Like he said a couple scratches in the drivers side passenger corner and a scuff on the softtop was all really there was.

Some of the fun along the way...

108° from the Washington border all the way to Boise. The glare almost makes it so you can't see the outside temp in the top left corner.

Camped/parked last night in Jerome, ID at the fairgrounds. Unhooked the truck to go get dinner. Went to bed and woke up surrounded by cars! Had to get creative to get hooked up again.

$300 got me to Spanish fork just south of Salt Lake City. 7.1 mpg.

I feel your pain...I put 120 gals in the boat last week...at 4.49 a gallon...

Hard act to follow. Gotta have the balls to try that one. Way to go. :rock::rock:
