Question Tow vehicle behind a Class C RV

[Kevin D Pem]

If this reply is for me, I specifically said I have never been. But it looks interesting. I might have a look one day.

No, not for you. I always think south of Phoenix. I know about the California one but I don't do off-road. I thought the clarification was good for anyone the mention put the adventure on the map.

A street legal side-by-side/ATV is not legal in every state. A 2 door YJ, TJ, JK, JL Wrangler or KL Cherokee Trailhawk would be the best option for straight forward flat towing ease of use. From my experience, the easiest DIY and least expensive to set up are the YJ, TJ and JK (flat tow rated winch bumpers cost less than base plates). There's many used for sale, some already set up for flat towing, although, the manual versions are like hunting Unicorns.

And some trails it is not legal to use with anything wider than a side by side.

You need to plan your equipment based on most important usage.

Side-by-sides (UTVs) are prohibited on almost all trails and paved roads inside Utah’s "Mighty 5" National Parks

I was staying at Imperial dam LTVA. The "vehicle" I was in was a 4 seat Polaris 1000 turbo that ran about $55000. I guarantee you and anyone else that a Subaru did not go where I went. No, you cannot summit the peak without climbing, but.....any sufficiently "modified" vehicle is not a stock vehicle. I would love to watch your Jeep attempt what we did. You can traverse the normal trails and such, but there are places you are not going. I have a Jeep also, and I went on a guided ride last weekend here in Tenn. There were places that I said, "Oh hell no" and they were mild by comparison.

Then why does the entire group I rode with in Cali and AZ go to Moab and the mighty 5 as soon as the weather heats up in Yuma? They ride plenty up there.

Width rules apply on many designated trails. Some are fine for any motor vehicles. Some require street legal.

Equipment should be chosen based on requirements is all I am saying. It's equivalent to buying a two wheel drive Jeep to off road, to restricted!

I don't make the rules or enforce them. Street-legal ATVs and UTVs are prohibited on all paved and unpaved roads within Utah National Parks, including Zion and Arches. National Park Service regulations supersede state laws, and off-highway vehicles are not permitted even if they are legally registered for street use in Utah. Perhaps you should have your friends have a look at the rules and regs.

But what ever. You are happy with your side by. I am happy with my Jeep. Like I said before. It has taken me everywhere I have wanted to go in comfort.
