    Great video... those pictures are awesome..... these vehicles are freaking sick. Just a 4" lift and 33s.... most vehicles need a crap load of mods to even attempt that, and you made it look easy!

    Shows you how rigid the Commander subframe is. Great video.

    Yes, the XK with QDII is really awesome. Watch some of the other YouTube videos of other vehicles crossing Golden Crack and most of them get real tippy. It's probably a wheelbase (or maybe an IFS) issue but I felt solid all the way across.

    In spite of scraping the tailpipe, there was no appreciable damage. In fact, it could probably be done with a 2" lift and 31s, however there are several other obstacles on Golden Spike where the skids would get a major workout.

    Amazing pictures! It's amazing how the rear bumpers/tail pipes always catch objects on our XK's. Even on less aggressive rocks/ledges Sal and I caught our rear bumpers a few times at Uwharrie.

    Thanks. Yeah, she's very enthusiastic--and a good film editor also! I let her drive the final leg on the Gold Bar Rim trail and she did a great job.

    Awesome video. When she said "your bumper is clear....sort of" then you crush your tailpipe, hilarious. I would love to go to moab. Maybe one day.

    Thank you for showing that video! I really wanted to see how you got across. It have my heart rate up watching it. Also, I was rolling cause of your daughter! She is pretty funny. It really gets me cause usually the wife, kids or passengers are the ones worried about damage and the driver just knows its all part of it, but your wife and daughter were the ones screaming "way to go". I love the "let me see a power pose."
