I have spoken with a few of you guys and thought I would post up here since more Capital guys look like they are thinking of going. I know we are all still glowing in what was a GREAT Fall Crawl!, but this trip will need some logistics to be figured out and I wanted to get the ball rolling.
Options are tow out and wheel or fly out and catch a ride. Might have others as well. (at least one lucky guys gets a rental)
I have talked with the Rubithon chairman and he is excited to have an East Coast presence. He presented me with options for those of us towing out and where to drop our tow rigs and trailers. I know some have been out before, some have read about it, I think we have all dreamed about it! This is the Grand Daddy of them all. A bucket list item to say the least. I plan on doing it in a FJ40, actually the little blue one I had at FC.
As with most trips, this one should push you to get your rig in top shape. One way in, one way out, no parts stores along the way. One will need to be prepped well and be able to carry gear and provisions for 4-5 days.

Most people have to put in for vacation at the first of the year, so think about it and see if it is something you can do. I am not sure we will get a group this size again to go out.
If you want to go or are thinking about it, please post up, show us or tell us what you want to take out and how you need to take it out, or if you have a seat to ride in.
I have confirmed that I will tow a double and take mine and Gary S.'s FJ40 out. Yes Gary will have his FJ40 delivered out to the event to wheel!
Thanks,
Rob
