;D Hi all, I'm a new member to the forum and to Jeepdom. Retired to BC from the US in 1998 and travel to Hawaii and the Southwest late fall to late spring. My wife and I just bought a 2005 Wrangler Unlimited. Last year we had gone to Sedona, AZ, among a lot of other places, with our Dodge 2500 4x4 towing a Yamaha Rhino 660. We camped in our popup camper. While there we discovered you can't just ride around on the local trails with the Rhino w/o a lot of hassel so we rented a Jeep. Ended up running the Broken Arrow trail. I had never driven a Jeep before, let alone go rock climbing!! What a ride!!! I remember thinking that "If those pink tour jeeps can do this, so can I". When we made it in one piece without breaking anything I think I was hooked. Since that time we decided to have a little more comfort (for a lot more money) and are having a 27-foot RV built on a Ford F550 4x4 chassis in Indiana. We told ourselves that the main reason to buy the Jeep was to tow behind our new RV. We're gonna have a lot of fun too though. After all we can't tow the rhino too, eh. Looking forward to participating in this forum. Rick P.

Welcome to the forum. We went out to Sedona a few years ago, but didn't get to go Jeepin. So this March we are going back. Since it's to far to take my Jeep we will rent. What company did you rent from? I am in the planning stage right now and could use a recommendation. Post some pics of your rig when you get time.

Hi all, thanks all for the welcome.
I am in Hawaii and the Jeep is in CA so pics will have to wait.
MoneyPit,
The address of the Jeep rental we used is:
Farabee Jeep Rentals - 3009 W Highway 89A, Sedona, AZ (928) 282-8700
It is on the West side of town out near the intersection of SR89 and El Camino Road. Got the above address from Google.

I deleted the goofy post with all the hotlinks. Linked to virus perhaps?
