Now that im back in school I have checked with all my classes and so far I have nothing major going on during bshs. The week for bshs is the week after my spring break. As of now I can miss class, work shouldn't be an issue either...my only problem is getting squeaky ready in time. I have a lot to go over to make sure she's in tip top condition to make the trek out there

I am still questionable but looks promising. I already have a reservation for Motel 6. So I'm ahead of the game on that part

Of course driving H1s we might go a little slower than you like. We drive straight through. Usually leave about 2:00AM Saturday morning and arrive in Moab about 5:30 Saturday afternoon. Unload at the hotel,run by Neo's to drink a few beers, go eat dinner, and go back to Neo's for a few more beers, and to sit around the fire and plan Sunday's run.

x3 on a request to stay in Neo's yard. Apparently everything under the bridges in the area is booked by homeless men. Unfortunately i checked my school schedule and i have a midterm wednesday, that i won't be able to get out of. So i won't be able to leave till 9 pm-ish. so i will only be able to wheel thursday - sat/sun (whichever is the last day) But i'll definitely be there for the second part of the week. So save a small place for me somewhere in neo's yard if at all possible

o you replied to my question before I even finished posting! I will see what I can do. I can probably get work off, I checked yesterday and have no major tests, midterms or assignments during that week. The only thing holding me back now is getting the H3 in moab condition...whatever condition that is lol. As for speed, Idc. I will probably get some better MPG's that way.

Sounds good to me, I am around 85k miles now (35s with an untuned PCM so probably closer to 90k) and I consider any vehicle used for wheeling in the "severe conditions" for the owners manual so I will probably go ahead and get the 100k mile service done before moab, get my springs taken care of and tested before I get to moab and have the dealership look for any other possible problems. Maybe a trip down to Tustin Hummer instead of the local chevy dealer as they are thorough and may see other possible areas that need attention.

We go through three 7000+ foot passes and several 5000 foot passes so lots of climbing. We take it easy, stop and eat a couple of times and enjoy the spectacular views. Chris you will love it. Zach hope you make it also. Ajk, Neo has a big yard, come on down.
