The Rubicon Trail vs Moab.....

[Boatwrench]

Consider the fact you are in Santa Rosa, most of your customers have never left California, you need to advertize what they know to make the sale.

Now the trails. No comparison because they are different. Completely different.

I have been on the Rubicon 3x. Once in 1977, once in 1982 and just this past summer and boy has it changed in the last 1/4 century, lot more crowded. The scenery is wonderful, the swimming holes wonderful, and the SHADE fantastic while you sit & wait for some assistance because your son in laws toyota broke yet again and he didn't bring any tools. In 77 ran a stock CJ-7 with no troubles, just a few tugs, but I feel that would no longer be possible.

I have been to Moab 3x. The 20th Anniversary, ICE on the Rocks & the 25th Anniversary. Loved it. It is 4x4 mecca because it offers trails and challenges for all levels from stock to buggys. The views from some of the promotories are the best there is, but no shade and no swimming hole.

At the end of the day, both areas offer the chance to sit around a fire with friends, a cool drink, laughter and tall tales building the camaderie that makes the best club.

So, Moab and the Rubicon are great, and they would be REALLY great if we can continue to enjoy them.
The closurists are constantly attacking our use of public lands. Get involved, write a letter or two.

Ah... I just am speechless.

The key is NOT to go to either place on a busy weekend or during a major event. When it's quieter, both places are much more enjoyable.

Sure, it can get hot in Moab, but at least they don't have the Rubicon skeeters.

I'll try.


The hole in this conversation started at work. I can't count very high, but I have been to the Rubicon before. I have been to Moab when it was busy. I like Moab but it was so hot I had to eat mints (or El Mints for the Spanish speaking types). I tried to win some mints. I also like that there is kind of a central spot to meet anyone who has been there before. The Rubicon is the best place ever to rent diffs.

I could use a rented diff...how much shipped to 94501?...or can I only rent on the Rubicon?

 

[Darky]

How much is diffrent anyways? Hopefully not too much or else I'd rather just pay the jeeprent.
