Hope you have a great trip! As of now the Pacific Northwest is the front runner for our summer 2011 road trip. I hope you post about your trip.  My boys will be 7/5 in 2011.

Tom... That sounds like the best road trip ever! I hope one day when I retire I will be able to do a trip like that.  I can't wait to read all about your trip.  Heck I even want to read about you planning your trip.  I went to spring training in AZ this year, will probably go to about 15 Dodger...

Something no one has touched on, is that a 33' class A is a lot easier to maneuver than a 33' 5er.  In fact some national parks "say" they do not take trailers over 27' because you really need to be pretty good at cutting those things into your spots.  I often times see people at parks take a...

Well now I am totally undecided.  What is the best way to get home?  We will be starting our drive home on July 3rd.  Originally I plnned on taking the I-70w to the I-15S.  Now the idea of coming home through Flaggstaff seems very appealing.  If I do that, do I go through Albuquerque NM I-25S to...

I had read the manual pretty thoroughly and it made no mention.  But someone at a campground once asked me how often I stop to run the engine and thought I would ask the experts.  Thanks guys.

We don't use ours that often because of the huge PITA it is to light it.  There really ought to be a better way!

I tow a 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X.  It is a 4x4 automatic. You have to put transfer case in neutral, and tow in park.  The manual also says you disconnect the battery while towing.  I tow with a Roadmaster Falcon All terrain tow bar, and Road Master Even Brake brake system.  Both are very...

I'm going on a 3200 mile trip.  Most legs of the trip will be between 300 and 500 miles.  I am towing a 2008 Jeep wrangler 4x4 unlimited with automatic transmission.  Is it recommended to either disconnect, and have someone follow behind me for a certain period of time? Or should I simply turn...

Carl nailed it! I've been to Yosemite a bunch of times, and that is simply the easiest road.  No matter what time of year it should be driveable.

I-25S to I-40W through Flagstaff, or I-25S to 160W to 89S to I-40W. I never thought of that??? Since you have done this part of the trip is there a reason why you like this better? I'm afraid I will be having to cross AZ in the middle of the day which really scares me.

Bird, I think I might leave LA Friday night and just stop along the way somewhere past Vegas, and wake up early and get to Bryce early Saturday, so we can have almost 2 full days there.  Wendy I wish I could take it slower, but we are already at 19 days.  Not only do I need to get back to...

Hello everyone, I hope you guys are all doing well.  I am planning our first ever long road trip, and was hoping some of you vets could take a minute and look over what my plans are, and give me any opinions/suggestions.  I will be traveling with my wife (33), my mother in law (60ish), and my...

Thanks Guys, I was able to tow my Jeep, on a very short trip with no problems.  This weekend I have a trip to Arizona for some spring training baseball, and some golf.  During my last trip someone asked if I stopped and unhooked the jeep every couple hundred miles, and drive it to lube the...

I don't have the owners manual.  Please excuse my ignorance but how do I put the transfer case into neutral? Is that the 4wd lever? do I just slide that down to the neutral position?

Hello everyone, Today I am purchasing, and having installed a Falcon All -Terrain 900 tow bar, and mounting brackets, and the Accessory Kit, at Campind World.  My question is do I need to make any type of modifications to the 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited besides installing the mounting...
