Do you think it's possible to nail down an arrival date? I'd love to be there but I need to have a couple weeks notice to get vacation time.

The ride that there planing is in June of 2018. We will have to continue to get updates from @moparornocar and @CumminsPusher as they formalize the plan.

The plan is formalized as far as starting location and route through WI and MN so far. And man was MN a biotch

I know when the ride is planned for. I'm not asking for an arrival date now. That's why I stated "a couple weeks notice". As in, is it even possible to know the exact arrival date at the time they leave on the trip?

Ah, my mistake. I'm sure I can probably nail it down to with in a couple day window anyway. Would that be close enough?

I know we intend to be making daily entries on this forum of our progress, trials and triumphs along the way, but as mopar is coordinating this venture and it's captain, you'll have to communicate with him for the best information.

Definitely! I assume you'll have the ability to post progress updates along the way as well. That way us common folk can track you and know if you get behind schedule for any reason.

Absolutely. We will be hitting up the wifi spots at campgrounds, posting on our progress, trials and tribulations, and how far we got that day etc.

Or ahead of schedule, lol.

Man I would love to participate in a trip like this but with my P 500 I am mobing it for such a trip I wish someone could do something like that so I could patisipayt as well. I'm sure that a P 500 could do a trip like this with no problems exept that it would be at a max 40 mph. witch is not really that slow.

And I have added a full tool box like the one Jshell3 has on hes and I'm going to the local metal shop to have me a proper rack built.

It is going to be a full blooded expedition machine

I think the problem with the p5 is going to be running wide open throttle for hours on end, days on end. That's not good on any machine.

How meany miles in the baja 1000 and at wat RPM do they run and for how long? Just saing.

Priventev maintenance is the trick and good luck .

Hey, if you got the stones, cmon! Little bit of difference between 200k Baja machines and our buggies, but if you think you got it, send me a text.

Mopar what's your rest/drive schedule shaping up to be? Forgive me if posted but I didn't see it

10-12 hours ride time a day, sounds like tiny rest, big ride.

Not entirely sure, but I was thinking maybe 4-1 or 5-1. Depends on how everyone is feeling.
