The silver one is quite possibly the coolest KJ ever. |

Well here's what I got from day 2... my good camera isn't working so I had to use the backup  Playing on all the ledges throughout 7MR...      Geeting flexy at the lunch spot...  Then on to Wally's nemesis... the off camber traverse...  It's pretty crazy... Crossing the slope...  Then it was on to Wipeout hill... there really isn't a way to convey the steepness of this one. Let's just say that the rear tires on Yazhi's TJ were bouncing on the way down    Heading back up...   Awesome stuff! I think these are the first LOST members to do Wipeout Hill  No KJ's yet though

I used to drive around the buttes and up Wipeout fairly often in my TJ. I just can't imagine taking a vehicle with carpeting and automatic windows out there. Moabites only retract power windows after a hose down. Otherwise the blow sand scratches hell out of them. Then, there's the major question of approach angle on a KJ. If this had been next week (weather will be much better), I'd have gone down to see how people deal with smacking the plastic bumper into rock. In fact, I am going down next week, but I'll be taking the TJ |

It just takes a little longer to clean the sand out of the carpet  The approach angle really isn't to bad, the plastic just kinds of flexes a little and you buff out the scatches later. I hear they did triple whammy yesterday so we will see how they did. We will be there on the 17th of May, can't wait to go back.

I drive around with the windows up and the AC on..... and I don't have plastic bumpers. |

It was kinda nice last year cruising on top of the world with the ac on in July. |

So I guess being from Draper means I can cruise MOAB with a nice interior and I have all my teeth.
