Little Rubicon Trail

This is the name we've given it... because, while it is much shorter and not as difficult it is no less spectacular than the original one: the trail we discovered yesterday...

We also visited the "Finger of God" in the morning...

All the pictures are here: http://picasaweb.google.com/mortinson3/LittleRubicon

More to follow....

Yes, he has... it's fully electronic now. And according to him he's managed 22 mpg on the road at 100 Km/h :D

What's the tyre size on the red G?
Are they 235/85/16's new mud terrains?
If so...

Any details on what system he installed? 22mpg in a 300GE, who would've thought possible!

Re: Little Rubicon Trail

Sorry guys, I am still waiting for Freyer's report in Spanish of what he bought and what he did with it so that I can try and translate it and post it here.

Be patient and God (or his substitute) will reward you!
