Of course Terry,
Later today I will try and post some pics and a link to a video on youtube, if you can't wait then just go to youtube and search disabledexplorers and look for one called intro...that shows some of moab.

Thanks Lance, sorry I missed you when I was passing through PHX. Hopefully we can meet up soon so I can check out your new rig

Every time we have the van in Moab wheeling it cracks me up because everything and I mean everything buggies, bikes, jeeps etc etc... stops and or turns around to watch you in the tough spots. These vans are so heavy even when I ran my van with stock suspension and tires and open diffs I could still walk up just about any thing. People would be blown away see a stock van walk where built jeeps are struggling now with big tires and lift it is not as impressive to people as it was when it was stock. I also sort of cracked up because the way a lot of people talk and smerk as we passed them up I could tell they thought I was some idiot that had no business being on those trails when I was probably more prepared to be up there than most of them even though it does not look like it to a person passing by.

I know that look, got it a lot when I had a samurai with a 4:1 t-case and lock right lockers in both axles, looked stock but went everywhere & the constant jaw dropping was hilarious

I had Grumpy on 7 Mile Rim last November. Would have done more trails, but I was wheeling solo and had to be in Santa Monica by that night.

I'll have to dig for some more. We were in moab for a day and a half, did Fins and Things, the one across from it, Little Lionsback(Lionsback was shut down), a couple outside of town. Good times.

OK, must have details on the snorkel Dansvan... and how freaky did the steep stuff feel in something so big & a driving position so forward of the typical trail rig?
