An early thanks to those of you driving many, many hours (and miles) and multiple days to get there next weekend. It can be annoying to burn up vacation days just to travel back and forth.

I'm lucky in that I have a pretty darn short trip. What's your time and mileage one way?

I'm at 7.5 hours, 465 miles

799 miles - 12 hours :) (depending on weather of course)

We decided to tow with the 1 ton, the baby Hummer, was a little pooped after towing over Donner Pass and back this weekend. Decided the 1 ton could tow the rzr at 75-80 and not even notice. (plus parts are easier to find in the middle of nowhere :) )

Approx. 3.2 miles; 5-10 minutes (depending on how many jeeps in my way)

You and Neo are a little closer, we're 4 hrs and 250 miles. Makes us appreciate the dedication for those driving so far. A a big Hoorah for those up to the task!

749 miles for me. Someone I said I was brave for going without a trailer but if it needs a trailer and is street legal it's not reliable enough for me.

Gonna get great mileage following the H1 @ 55 mph lol

there were a ton of jeeps staged around this morning , a bunch meeting at the bowling ally, old school, and a few spots in town. the campgrounds were'nt full yet either. not sure how crazy things will be by mid week, made me second delivery to 7-11 this morning.

An NA H1 at that. :)
My truck has the same motor, with a turbo, it's not using at the moment...maybe I can swap the turbo on and get us there faster... :giggle:

Every time I close my eyes, I see a big countdown timer...

06H3, if we put him up front we get the windbreak AND the low-speed mileage bonuses. :shifty:

1200 miles, about 19hours. I'm back to trailering, a crew cab Silverado is much more comfortable for the long drive. Hope to reach Denver Thursday night and Moab before noon Friday. I have to be at the Jeep Safari vendor show in the afternoon. Can't wait!

Yep 1200 miles and I am the tow vehicle. Pulling a camper glad its small. Just averaged 13 MPG last night with out a trailer. I'm going to be broke by the time I get there. The ones with out the long drive buy the beer.

Coming from So Cal. Roughly 730 miles. 16 hours, long and slow drive. But we'll worth it

Take a walk down Williams Way. No parking, all filled up with trailers and trucks.
