i think this is what you meant...right?
no you wont make sections of GBR, but you'd get through the majority of it..lol it would be fun to see you try to get up the last waterfall :haha:
as for Shafer and White, you wouldn't have much trouble with those trails.
the big thing w/ those little elements is the front air dam. if you can clear the front, it will be just fine. Most southern utah roads are graded, w/ few exceptions. most roads going into the roost, the swell, and escalante (hole in the rock road) can be driven in this vehicle in dry conditions.
but here in lies the caveat, you get a little weather, and you could get into trouble.
i like the element, they look like the new LR3 Land Rovers, only smaller, and much more reliable...lol
