MOAB 2014...

[Kenny-g]

So I was thinkin yesterday about how badly I want to go to MOAB one year (prefferably the Easter Jeep Safari) and so I got to thinking...

By April I won't have sliders, a lift, or new tires and wheels on my Pat. So that probably isn't gonna heppen. I thought about the possibility of making it to MOAB next year...I'll have my sliders, lift, tires, and more likely than not LED lightbars and many many MANY other new toys to benefit myself on those trails.

So it looks like I am going to try to go in 2014! My request, if I may, is for a few other JeepPatriot.com Pat's to join me! Number one on my list of members who I think should join me is FWD Would be hilarious to see a front wheel drive Pat killin the trails

Several years back Jeep had a minorly modified Patriot and last year or a few years ago they had a minorly modified Compass. So I think it's safe to say a 4x4 Pat should do just fine (though it wouldn't hurt to have the FDII package!).

Let's see if we can get the ball rolling on this!

I've driven through Moab a few times doing out of town work up by Salt Lake. Love the terrain up there.

Looking at the trails list there are places a FWD stock Pat' could go, and places I would never attempt in a heavily modified Pat'.

You'd probably have to have a strong showing of Pat' owners if you went to the Easter Safari to help fend of the Wrangler Fanatics from poking too much fun.

That said, I could make Moab in 6 hours or less... Maybe bring a 4 wheeler to do crazy stuff without worrying about getting home.

Damn.. I hate you guys that live out west... Nothing much ever going on here in the east.. I think it would be pretty awesome to go and see what your Patriot can do.

I meant ANY front wheel drive, not his. (but you probably knew that)

[aroundincircles]

I would love to go! I plan on going to Colorado and hit some trails this summer, then Moab next year!

[Kenny-g]

Me and you 'Circles! Next year! It's a date...okay I'll stop
Start plannin that sh!t man! If I am not mistaken it doesn't cost hardly anything to do it either! I really wanna get MrJeepR44 to go with me and if anything just ride in mine if he doesnt wanna run his

[aroundincircles]

What about Colorado this summer? It would be awesome to have another vehicle to go with. Take some more less difficult trails, but pretty that way it won't matter if we're modded or not.

[FailWheelDrive]

I get a strong sensation that something would be broken on my poor Patriot pre-end of day one.

Then again by 2014 my Pat will likely be sporting any number of additional modifications.

Hmmm

CO sounds fun too. I have a good friend in Denver that I'm dyin to go s

[FailWheelDrive]

Oh and its not a chick named Mary Jane

Oh totally but I won't have my mods either till next year as well, plus I'm in school so I have to wait till summer vacation to go any where this semester.

as far as colorado, Not sure where, which trails or when, Just know that's where I wanna go on vacation.. Of course Northern utah/ca/co would work, just up in the mountains where my jeep can get dirty.
The white mountains of AZ would work as well, if there is some good trails we could do, and if that is closer for you guys.

[Kenny-g]

Well CO is on the way up to Wyoming which is where I was planning on visiting family at this summer and AZ is further south and west of that route so I'd be cooler with CO.
