    Lol...good work VT; I ought to get plenty of responses now, lol. Can't help my lengthy posts sometimes -- I'm a writer. I like to write stuff, anything; sometimes too much stuff. Though I'll try to mind my gigantic paragraphs of complete BS from now on...

    Thanks everyone for the comforting words, I was already feeling mild anxiety about going offroad, though I feel somewhat better now, lol. If others can do it in a stock VX, I can do it in a stock VX

    ...I will definitely be there for the mass VX run on the 17th. I'll probably leave Vegas the evening of the 16th, and Moab isn't a far drive.

    Lol at your representations of yourself and other forum people Dub; I especially like that little dancing banana. I can't wait until I can legitimately use that thing in a post one day...that will be a satisfactory day.

Also at any point if you don't feel comfortably just give a holler amd there are many of uw that will be more than happy to spot you through a difficult spot. You will be amazed at what even a bone stock VX is capable of!

    Yup! I stick real tight to Mark and Scott's rear end, both are excellent spotters!
    Although all 3 of us do have slightly larger than stock tires, so we have a wee bit more clearance. I believe mine was about 1 1/4" higher with my 285s. The first year as fully stock, I did get some scrapes both front and rear, so ya gotta keep in mind that Billy's idea of difficulty and normal people's are vastly different. This is a "bumpy" road for Billy....

    They are all just "bumpy roads"...







    ...just some of the bumps are a bit larger!

    oh, this wasn't bumpy at all, just a little sand and a puddle...

    Well actually there was a bump on the other side of the puddle and sand that I was attempting to get up...

    ...unfortunately I sank in said puddle and sand prior to conquering the bump!

    But someone had to try it!

    Seriously?! Those trails look terrifying...the rocks are taller than the skirts of my VX! I might scratch her! O noes!!! Maybe I should get a lift before I head to Moab...but I don't know anything about lifts yet, shoot! I need to research mods before I do them...much to think about.

    ...and that banana suit is fking awesome!

    Trust me, it is all about the right line. With a good spotter you will have no problems. I will have you crawling over boulders like a pro.
