    Yes, that is a great video! He's on a fairly easy section of stock-friendly Fins and Things which appears pretty steep in the video due to the long lens.

    There's a gazillion Crown Vic cop cars, so they must have something going for them.

    It does seem out of place to see a family sedan out there, but from stories my mom & dad have talked about from their days in Trona CA, it was common to see a 1950's Bel Aire or even old Model T's miles and miles from anything. They'd ride a Harley in the Panamint Mountains. One time, they saw a brand new Buick with an old couple coming down a sand road, then going up a steep rocky hill. They stopped on the way by. They were full up with supplies and heading back to their mining camp in a shiny new (Then) 1960's Buick sedan.

    You just never know...

    I have done some wheeling in the Moab area, including a couple days last year on the way to 2010 WCCC. Awesome scenery. It definitely is a different feel than Colorado. I am only running a 2" lift and found with smart lines and going slow I could go anywhere I wanted to go.

    I would love Moab. It's closer to home for me (1 day drive instead of 2), and I am always up for exploring someplace new!
    The best things in life can not be found on a map; they can only be found while Wandering.

    Seeing the Crown Vic reminds of the Blues Brothers - It's got a cop engine, cop tires, cop suspension...

    It adds a little extra planning for me to get there and as usual it won't be until next spring if I could say yes or no, but that goes for wherever it is.

    There was some discussion about this at WCCC 2011 and I want to see if there is in fact enough enterest to cmsider this for WCCC 2012.

    I would suggest we go in May or September but one of the big consideration is for those who have school aged kids... would they attend?

    What are your thoughts, I like the idea but only if there is enough interest.

    We could always do a smaller event at Moab and then WCCC 2012 in Colorado as well.
