Last year my wife and I loaded up the Renegade and took a six day road trip to Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Devil's Tower, Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons and home again. We had a fantastic time. Other than our destinations, every other stop (Wall Drug for example) was done on a whim. When we got tired, we'd Google a nearby hotel. The only reservation we made in advance was at Yellowstone so we could get a room as close to the park as possible.
Anywho. Next summer, with any luck, we'll have the new Wrangler sufficiently broken in and we're thinking about another trip. This time we're thinking the Grand Canyon (South Rim, probably) with a stop at Monument Valley along the way.
If you've made that trip, and I'm guessing some of you have since the route we'll be taking goes through Denver and Moab, feel free to post any tips or things to avoid. Best times to go. Things to see (that aren't too far out of the way). Places to stay. Restaurant suggestions, etc.
Disclaimer: I should add that the Wrangler will be a stock Sport S:
so hardcore rock crawling off-roading won't be on our itinerary. I know, I know, that makes me less of a man, but I'll just have to live with it.
