...they give you a nice yeti bottle when you get there, and there’s plenty of water or coffee to fill it with.
Unless they changed things up since November, there is NO coffee.

For those that have gone, how did you get to the base camp from town. We are flying in from Idaho and will most likely be staying on the strip.
We stayed on the strip as well and just rented a car for the day. Most major hotels/casinos have a car rental desk. Another couple that was there took an Uber but the driver wouldn't venture up the gravel road. We ended up giving them a ride back.

The instructors are GREAT in Nevada and the trails are varied from easy to quite challenging. I would say that my confidence for off-roading increased ten-fold . . . improved confidence was my main takeaway and it is sure to be yours as well! You will have a ton of fun while learning a ton at the same time.
That is good to know. Looking forward to learning to use that Badlands that I ordered, even though I have no idea when it will be here.

Same with me. Here's a tip . . . after a morning orientation session, everyone will get to go where all the Broncos are parked and select the Bronco they will be driving for the remainder of the day. They don't "assign" a particular Bronco to everyone . . . so it is "first come first served" by walking up to a Bronco and basically claiming it. Try to eyeball a Badlands before this process so that you can go straight to it, as you will want to ensure you have access to Badlands features like the front lockers and stabilizer bar disconnect. As I recall, most of the Broncos used were indeed Badlands but I know not all of them were.

My son and I are in the 4/15 crowd too. Can’t wait to get out there!😎
April 15th...weather should be warmer. Maybe there will be some water on the trails? My Bronco is (hopefully) getting built this week. It will be a fun road trip. I think it is terrific Ford puts these off road clinics on to teach us how to use this truck. I can't wait!!

It would be cool if a big group of Bronco6g members booked for April 15th!!

‘I only saw one two door in October and it was a Base or Big Bend. That said I think they only bring out 1/2 to 1/3 of the stable so there were probably more two doors I didn’t see.

We just made our off roadeo reservations last night for March 10th. We will fly in on the 9th, and pick up a rental. Plan on hiking on the 11th so we will need a rental for that too. Then will be staying on the strip the 11th and 12th so those will be the party nights! 🍻🍻🍻
I'll be there the same day @notafordguy.

They were all 4drs when I was there. Only 2dr they had was on display, sitting on a rock pile with one wheel off the ground. I’m sure you’ve seen the pics of it with x-mas lights on it in the weekly Offroadeo email. There were some 4dr wildtraks. If you get a badlands, you get to play with the sway bar disconnect, but the wildtraks had the fancy cameras. They all have the Sasquatch package, and I think they all had the 2.7. If you bring a guest, don’t bother trying to claim the closest bronco or the farthest bronco. Those will be the two that the trail guides are riding shotgun in, and the “singles” will get them. If you don‘t have a guest, I’d try to grab the lead bronco. Besides getting to go first on all the obstacles, you kind of get to set the pace. If you set a quick pace, your group gets in more trails. Also, you’re not eating anyone else’s dust.
