It probably won't be the first off-road adventure but depending on the time of year we actually get it, Pearl Pass will be on our list. I was up there on my bike earlier today and while the mud pits and talus sections are about what they typically are there are a couple sections that have gotten worse than the last time I was up there.

I passed a loaded but mostly stock Rubicon on the way down that made it look easy and a massively modified one on the way up. This year I personally wouldn't feel comfortable taking some of the stock SUV's we've had over the years on some of the tougher parts (although I could probably still make it in a pinch). This is one of the roads that we are buying the Badsquatch for. My wife refuses to let me try it in the Prius....

If I get it during warmer months the first trip will be the beach to see how well it handles sand and if it’s in the fall or winter I’ll take it to my property in mountains .

Depends on when I am lucky enough to get my Bronco. If it's soon enough (which I doubt), I'm heading to the SW (AZ, NM, UT, CO).
good plan but the best advice i can give you is DO NOT come to AZ in the summer ... pick the other 3 instead

Depends what you mean by big trip. First trip for me is Johnson Valley. Then Ocotillo Wells. This are local though.

My first bigger trip will be Flagstaff-Colorado-MOAB-Zion

Were you disappointed that they didn't name a bronco trim after this? ?

But I googled it and turns out it's a real place that looks interesting. Definitely need some winter tires.

Would love to hit the trails with some of y'all starting in Southern CA (Joshua Tree, San Bernardino National Forest area) making our way hopefully through Vegas to Utah hitting multiple State/National Parks while there! If we can get a "Badlands Nation"-inclusive of other Broncos too we can have some awesome fun and create great content???
