A couple of years ago the guy that put the Moab event together was 'France' French. Heavy accent, always a cigar, gorgeous wife.... We all called him Frenchie. He won't be there this year, and I'll sure miss him.

I am hoping and saving!! I would probably drive down in the Hummer to warm it up for the event.

Well Green...... You're all over the HML, I EXPECT to see you down there!
I can hardly wait. It'll be absolutely incredible.
If you own a Hummer, and you're the kinda person that likes wheeling, this is THE event.

Here's some of the cool stuff that goes down in Moab.
Jeep / Mopar showed up at the Easter Jeep Safari with some concepts including this wicked thing.
Here's the skinny on this gem.
The funky Jeep Mighty FC concept pays homage to the old Jeep Forward Control trucks built from 1956 to 1965. The advantage to the forward control design is that it kept vehicle length at a minimum while allowing plenty of space for a full-length cargo box.
To build the new FC, the Jeep team started with a Rubicon and repositioned the cabin over the front axle. Engineers lengthened the wheelbase and added a drop-side cargo box. The cab uses a roof from the Mopar JK-8 conversion kit, along with a custom front clip. The bed measures more than eight feet.
Off-road capability is improved with Mopar's Portal Axle set, which offers the most ground clearance available without a full lift kit. The front Portal Axle costs $12,500, while the rear setup is $11,000. Both are on sale now. Axle movement is controlled by King coil-over assemblies with upgraded control arms and track bars. The FC rides on 40-inch tires mounted on 17-inch bead-lock wheels.

It's unlikely to be produced - too bad.
Anyway, they released it at Moab for a reason. Moab's AWESOME!
