Yes, I'm sorry but here's another Bronco Off-Roadeo thread. I did the Moab course on Sunday Nov. 5th. I mostly wanted to reiterate what basically everyone else has already said - it was great! The instructors were very friendly and knowledgeable, the weather was nice and cool, the trail was fun and not too difficult, and I picked up some good tips. I have a Badlands. I ended up in an OBX which was okay but there were a couple of times where I wondered how an obstacle would have gone with the disconnect. It was nice to take someone else's Bronco on the trail and not worry about breaking anything.
We had a small group of 5 Broncos but were in the second group behind another group of 5. It was a little slow at times but it gave us a chance to watch them go first which made it a little easier I think. I heard that sometimes the groups are twice as big, so all in all it was pretty nice.
Thank you to whoever mentioned bringing a usb cord and bluetoothing into the stereo. I was solo but there was another solo person in our group and the instructor rode with him. That was totally fine with me but I'm glad I had some music to play during the day since I was by myself.
The only "negative" being in the second group was that with the time change it got dark before we could finish the course. (Our hours were 1pm-8pm.) So we turned around and went back the way we came doing the same obstacles backwards, in the dark. That was cool but I would have liked to see the rest of the trail (as the front group was able to keep going). Also, I was probably following the lead car a little too close at times on the way out because it was super dark and I couldn't really see what was coming up unless I was kind of close. Ford needs to get those guys some more lights!
I had to drive home right after we got back so I didn't get to stick around for dinner etc. But from my interactions with the other attendees during the day everyone seemed really nice and were having a good time from what I could tell. I was kind of surprised because people did pretty well for what sounded like a somewhat inexperienced group. (And only 2 of us had been to Moab before.)
Overall, 2 thumbs up and thanks to everyone who was there for making it a great day! Here are some pictures, mostly of the other drivers but one of me in the silver OBX. I'm obviously not a professional photographer or influencer as you can tell, lol. - Greg
