The Powertrax is silent and all but invisible on the pavement and has worked flawless offroad...all 6 hours I have on it. I could not be happier. The shop I had it installed at also ordered it. The No-Slip alone was $450...about an average price as far as I can tell and I did not have to pay shipping. Some places online we're cheaper but the cost ended up being very close once you factor in shipping.

You speak highly of HnH. I did enjoy myself while I was there, but it is a bit too rustic for me still. We seemed to be on the same road in and out. Mud road or something. It was kind of like driving a slot car when I was there. Just let go of the wheel and give it gas when needed. There were not many obstacles where you could get out and take video or pictures. It was like a 1 lane trail ride. Pick a trail, A1, B4, D6 and that is all you get, till you get back to C1 or the Mud road. Maybe I just like options.

The play area at the parking lot is fun though.

I forget what trail this was, but when heading down to the bottom, you have a choice to go left or right. We chose left and were not able to get up this obstacle at the end. We had to back down the entire creek. I want to say WL or WR. Not sure though.

Here are more pictures:

There are a few mud bog movies and some of the attempts at that obstacle WL or whatever. Right click the movies, dont stream please.

The XJ can definitely get it done. Those pictures were before the winch and new rear hatch. Is there a post on the Badlands someplace? I may be able to go, will have to play it by ear. The wife will be around 7 months by then. I know I will want to have my XJ, but I dont want to drive it 3+ hours out there. I barely trust it to make the 45minute trek to Haspin. :lol: Lets just say it has some quirks.
