Rig: 1981 Cherokee
Crew: Avis and Bob
Would lover to apply for the 2020 UA. A week of wheeling trails but not knowing where you are going or what you will be wheeling. That have done everything from Table Mesa to the forest on the east coast.
You have to apply and then if you make the first cut you get people to vote for you. I figure we know enough people that we could get the votes. I think the biggest hurdle is going to be the first cut.
We do have the fact that we have a rig that isn't like every other Wrangler out there.
