Bummer about the tranny....have a great time in Colorado and I'd be happy to do another trip with you if you want to test it out.

2012 Jeep JKU Rubicon - 4-1/2" AEV lift w 35" Toyo's
03 BMW Z4 2.5i ESS Stage 2 Supercharged, Custom Suspension, Stebro Exhaust, Hamann Side Skirts
85 BMW 535is Lowering springs, bilstein sport shocks, extra attitude
I'll let you know when we plan another trip. Probably late spring (april/may).
Maybe try somewhere different.
As an update. They are giving me a new/remanufactured Jasper Transmission. It has a 100k mile warranty so I guess that seems ok. In fact I would trust this transmission more than if they had rebuilt mine. I'm supposed to pick it up today.
I've been driving my 68 Falcon to work every day and boy do I miss the comfort of the jeep. I love my falcon but it rides like a tank and on houston roads thats not a good thing. (BuMpY!)

I did get the XK back last week before I went on vacation. I didn't drive it (saved me 400 dollars in gas) to colorado. I wish I had it there though. We got almost 6 inches on wed night which made my car pretty useless. I didn't bother driving it much when there was snow on the roads. My parents flew up there and rented a 4x4 liberty.
Thoughts on Liberty: Very heavy steering. Needs alot of skinny pedal to get it moving. At 10k feet it was wheezing like a wounded dog. My Jetta had some power loss too but the turbo just worked xtra hard to shove in more air and still was a blast to drive in the twisties. I do like the ability to turn off the 4wd on the liberty.

The last lift to the top. You had to take 3 different lifts to get to the top.
The ridge on the very top of Breckenridge. Not very wide up there. You had to hike/ski from the lift to get to this point! What a view

I love Breck. ... can't wait to get out west again!
Best ridge I've ever been on was the hike to drop in on the backside of Blackcomb glacier (Whistler). That hike actually had me a bit nervous!
