Minnesota to Colorado to Minnesota... or bust

So, I've got to deliver a bunch of beer-makin' vats out to my wife's uncle's place near Colorado Spring once I'm done making then. The issue is he doesn't have a truck to come get them, doesn't want to pay for shipping, but he is willing to pay me to bring them out there. That makes for a roadtrip in Eliminator!... granted I get it done in time.

 

Anybody in the area know any good trails? Granted, I will need to drive it back to Minnesota so nothing real crazy or anything.

 

We're looking to be out there sometime in August or September this summer. Thanks guys!

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the Springs area, only the High Country :brows: If you have time, try to get over to the San Juans, Ouray, and stay a night or two. The best of what CO has to offer is in this area.

 

In mid-late June 2008 I tried exploring some of the service trails around Vail. I was owned by snow. It just takes one, un-blasted through drift to ruin your day.

 

If you happen to take I70 through KS, I could wheel with ya around the Manhattan area :dunno:

I would take you through B.V carnage in YOUR truck if you want. :brows:

 

No!! My goal is to get my truck back together by spring time... new paint and all...

 

I would meet up with anyone, though if it works out. Always nice to hang with another MJ! :cheers:

yeah , man !! Come on down and see me . I live in the springs , let me know when your coming down .

Pete's right though , plan on a tune up before you come up here . the lack of oxygen makes it hard on old

motors .

Do what? Our old '93 XJ purrs along perfectly up high, unlike my folks 05 Hummer H3 which pukes out worse than a loaded down TBI suburban :ack:
