I may be wrong but I believe they say it won't work with the capable bumper because you would have to trim the plastic on the recovery point mount covers on the bumper. That appears to be the case with the Rough Country high mount. It looks like that is what they did on the fire rig.

I assumed it was dismantled and destroyed. It was a pre-production model so I doubt it survived. I saw it in Moab and it didn't sound like it got driven much. I absolutely loved that thing.

Too bad nobody will make the soft-top it had

Anyone know what trail this is?

My guess would be right around here:

The mountains in the background line up mostly, and the foreground appears to be rocky enough to be in one of the two creekbeds that trail crosses. It's not technically in the Bandelier park, but it's very close by.

Not sure but doesn't look like Bandelier to me too green.

Here's bandilier, its more canyon country.

We had a really wet winter and spring in NM so it's much greener than I can ever remember it being here.

I drove by the area a few times, didn't see anything like it. There is Valdes Caldera preserve close by that looks somewhat similar but there arent any trails through the middle of the valley.

*Valles. And yeah that's usually pretty green. But this year EVERYTHING has been green like I can't remember in my lifetime. I haven't been up to Bandelier in years, but it wouldn't surprise me if it looks like that right now.
