354 Miles

Avg. Fuel Econ. 22.5 mpg

Drove from Salt Lake City UT to Moab UT. We went to the Moab museum, drove through Arches National Park, did some shopping in downtown Moab, then drove the Topash trail that turns into the Shafer Trail in Canyonlands National park. After 20 or so miles of driving through the canyons you then have to drive up a cliff face on trails only slightly wider than the truck and ascend 1100 feet to the rim of the canyon.The sights were stunning. 

The truck handled the off road stuff with no problems. It was hot pretty consistently over 100 degrees. Between the automatic climate control and the ventilated seats we stayed cool. Even during some of the crazy switchback trails.
