I go every year. It was a great time like always. I took my JKU though and left my gladiator at home. I’m not ready to scratch it just yet.
I feel as if I know that screen name from another site ?

Oh, I've already talked to the product manager for that line, it's in the works. I volunteered my jeep to be the test vehicle if they need one..

Usually just a spectator.

2 birthdays and an anniversary party so missed out on the Invasion but checked out the vendors on Saturday.

How were the trails?

How were the trails?
This was our second trip to Bantam. Decided to take it easy this year and did the offsite trail at the quarry. We ended up only doing the easy trail. Definitely a good time but extremely dry and very dusty. We had removed our top and everything was covered with a 1/4” of dust. No big deal just part of the fun.
Also did the scenic tour ride and the drive through safari.
We skipped the on-site trails this year. I figured they would be the same as last year. Been there done that.
Also skipped the invasion. Last year it was packed! Spent over an hour sitting in traffic. Super long lines for everything! Lots of cool Jeeps but that was an unorganized shit show in my opinion.
I know I sound negative, but I would recommend going at least once for the experience.

I did the night ops Thursday and all the trails Friday. It wasn’t busy at all. Very dry though. That was the first time in the 6-7 years I’ve been going when the trails haven’t been muddy. Now I’m in OBX so had to cut bantam short!
