In 2006 when we went there, most of us stayed in a condo complex. WE doubled and tripled up so it was very economical. :wave:

Which complex? Planning on doing that again this time? Sandblast crew taking over?? I don't really want to tow the Boler the whole way across the country.

I'll contact my travel agent (Cincyjeepers, Kevin & Beth) and see if I can get the info.

Those condos were nice. I had a 4 bedroom unit to myself for the 1/4 price, since the booking person there couldn't fill it.
 
we are thinking really hard about going this year. I am still waiting to see what fees are going to be and where people will be staying. with 4 kids I would rather stay in a condo than camp.
 
Pretty sure the fees have never been more than $100, even for non-SOA members, and whatever they've been, the even is WAY more than worth it. :headbang:

I mentioned to Kate again today that we need to figure out if we'll all try to go or just me, but one way or the other, I'm getting there with the Postal. :bacon:

Pretty much in the same boat.
 
Eric, I don't get on here much, can you pm me the info on where to stay, and etc...?
I'm ready this year

Is the plan going to be the same (or close to the same) as it was in 2006 thread?
 
maybe...

Gosh, I hope I can make this one. I've driven a Scrambler there several times in the past - nice drive.
 
In the planning stages right now. What is the schedule going to be like? The dates in the first post are May 7-9 (Wed-Fri). At the 10th Scramble (2013) the main event was Thursday to Saturday with registration on Wednesday.
We are planning on arriving on the Wednesday but I dont want to miss a full day of the event.


Sorry for all the questions, just have to get the time booked off at work.
 
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday riding this year.

Reason being is that it's so far for so many in the East that it really does necessitate two days driving (Saturday, Sunday) to get home.

We intend to head out on Saturday, travel final leg of trip Sunday, arrive Sunday night and have Monday and Tuesday to play around (and not break anything) before the event.
Off one full week of work.
 
I guess that means I am planning to arrive Tuesday night now...
 
Plan is to leave Monday morning around 9am... (earliest I can leave) and drive 1900ish miles and be there Tuesday evening. Should be fun! :huh:
 
Just decided I'm coming. My first one and I cannot wait. Has anyone started a thread on what prep-work is recommended for the jeep before the 20-30 hour drive? How many tools, fluids, spare axles, engines, tubs should I bring? :thumbsup:
 
Welcome aboard! :thumbsup:

Best to check and double check EVERTHING before your trip. Are you trailering or driving your Scrambler?

There are several on here that drive cross country for these events. :wave:

I bought it in Florida where I went to school and trailered it back up to New York this summer when I finished. I swore I would never do it again. Even with a dual-axle trailer, it was a nightmare. The trailer raised the jeep about 4 feet, and with the soft OME lift kit I have installed, the bodyroll was just nuts. With every gust of wind, it would sway like mad...I'll be driving it to Moab this year if its the last thing I do.

It's got 52k miles on the 4cyl and runs like a dream, the only issue is that it can only do 55....Might have to leave the week before if I want to make it in time!
