    IMO the best cinematography I've ever seen of the Moab Rim Trail Shaun! This comment is from a Red Rock 4-Wheelers member that just completed his 27th Easter Jeep Safari and led this trail for a number of years as we live just over 2 hours from Moab. The lower Z-Turn has changed more over the years than any other place on the trail. There used to be a large boulder about halfway into the hole where Cara got tippy on the downhill at lower Z-Turn, and you HAD to take the line she was on. There was a lot of paint on that boulder but it kept many from rolling. Back in the day we were running flat fender Jeeps and CJ5's with 83" wheel bases and the crazy element had Detroit Lockers and couldn't run anything larger than 33" tires, because that was the biggest available! There always have been more rollovers going down hill than uphill probably because of the front engine weight bias of our rigs. The most rollers I've personally witnessed (3) have occurred at the pothole first appearing at the 10:44 mark of your video. They were all on the way out and the drivers simply didn't see the pothole and dropped the drivers front into it. As awesome as the Trail Destroyer is, your cinematography and presentation of this trail are even better! Keep up the great work Shaun and get those 250K subscribers.

    16:50 It's interesting that the shorter wheelbase was actually a disadvantage in this situation, I can't decide between a Gladiator or Wrangler Unlimited but I'm leaning more on the Gladiator side.

    Well done, very good video that was interesting and fun. The camera work was great and the time you took to show the Jeeps navigating the obstacles was just right. Liked that the spotters and leader gave encouragement and all the drivers did well and used momentum and easy throttle at the ledges. I did poison Spider this Easter and passed on the trail you featured for the reason you stated... scary.

      Same here! When I saw that shell I said to myself, "I need one of those"! Reached out to GFC and even though I have an older model truck they made a shell specifically for it. As an FYI, I also made inquiries to several other companies who make a similar product and got a "Sorry, can't help you" response.

    the nasty mile. i messed up bad when i did that trail. i was lucky and came out okay, thank goodness! i popped a big wheelie at the top of the Z turn when my foot slipped off the clutch. it was all my fault... so so lucky but it scared me so bad. when we were going up the dome, my t case snapped into neutral and my shifter broke. my brain snapped too. we got it back into 4 low and finished out the week unscathed. the next week, i was home stripping the transmission out of that TJ and swapping in a 4 speed auto and clayton hard arm kit. moab will reveal every weakness in your jeep. i have been there over 15 times and it never gets old!

If you want beauty, head to Ouray, CO, and run Yankee Boy Basin into Imogene Pass and back into Telluride. Although I ran those last year in mid-July and Imogene had just opened. Great video man!

      Have run this 4-5 times, !st ran this trail in '92, stock '70 CJ5, w/carb , lockers F&R, V-6 & 30"er's. Didn't have any problems, pick your lines for what you're driving. Surprised they didn't play at the sand hill rising out of the ravine @ 14:00 mark I would want t he lockers on all these trails.
