Well so far at rotr in Moab I have counted 6 rhinos, hundreds of rzrs, quite a few mavs and commanders, and a bunch of artic cats. It is so hot here I have vapor locked both days so far. 3 times on my first ride. Yesterday we were going up some rocks it started to buck so I punched it to get to a spot to stop before it died while my wife was reaching for a water out of the cooler to pour on my weller pump. Can't wait to get some of my videos posted up on here. Wish me luck today hope I don't vapor lock again today.

Are you running any type of dust shield between the bed and rear seats? I also had this happen to me, had to use water. Removed the dust cover and it hasn't happened again. I'm working on a scoop/ snorkel to move cooler air onto the fuel pump.

Looking forward to seeing pics!

Sugarbear, what tire seems to work the best on the rhino on the rocks?

I'm running growlers and they are hooking up good. 70% of the rides have bighorns they seem to hook up great.
