Just basic 4x4 is needed. Not even a lift IIRC but I'm still researching so don't hold me to it yet. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

It's all in Les's report on the first page of the post Ty. Don't forget to bring your son, someone needs to keep you straight. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Well Ray We have 2 montero's but she like's her 2001 Pathfinder. I wish the Montero has the same power. <a href="http://s97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/tyty1313/?action=view¤t=l_86e846c9aacb4720a68b78ab03dd192a.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/tyty1313/l_86e846c9aacb4720a68b78ab03dd192a.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/tyty1313/?action=view¤t=l_d095247183bc4f6dbaf915c837156b27.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/tyty1313/l_d095247183bc4f6dbaf915c837156b27.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Easy from what I've been reading. Just basic 4x4 is needed. Not even a lift IIRC but I'm still researching so don't hold me to it yet. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> a 4x4 truck-based SUV is enough. Stiff shocks and coils are a plus. There are long stretches of easy trail, when you are driving fast. But there is always a pothole/bump in the end of the stretch <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> 4Low is helpful in sandy areas. In most parts of the trail, 4High/locked is the best setup. My Axiom, unfortunately, locks only in 4Low.

Leo,
IIRC, this is usually a pretty big trip for your club, however being a 'Tow Rig' run, perhaps it won't be? I see from your site there are 8 listed as driving their tow rigs. Do you know how many rigs total you'll have on the trail?
TIA,
Ray
