Moab
Had the wife and kid with me, so I could not do anything crazy, and only spent a little time off road. 
The truck performed great, I was very happy with the way it handled the stuff I put it through!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Couple pics for your enjoyment

Thx.
If you didn't get TitanPat's post, I made the rack myself.
It worked wonderfully. We were camping and I put a ton of stuff up there on the ride out and back. It was quiet, didn't move around, very happy with the way it turned out.

BFLAN Industries....I like the way that sounds!
It was a fun trip. Wish I had more time to play. It's only 5-6 hrs from Denver so I am hopping to go out again in a month or two. You should make the trip and we can meet up in Moab!!!!! Have our own little 5th Gen Moab Trip!!!!

I'm so jealous!
Just a few questions for ya... how old is your kid? Is your truck lifted? What mods?
We want to do a Moab trip but our TE is still stock other than new rubber/wheels. Our son will be a year old next month. We're going to do a long road trip next summer and would like to stop in and do some offroading here. I'm just trying to get a feel if a lift is required and if we should wait until our son is older to avoid whiplash.
Any input would be great! Thanks!

There are some trails that you can do stock height and some that you most certainly cannot (though you will be tempted to anyway). There are enough trails for stock height to fill up a weekend at least. But for the funner ones, you will need a lift. My favorite trails have to be the sandy ones that don't require much clearance but are fun to speed down and a little kinder on the neck and back. If you are able to air down to 25 or 20, that will make the ride much smoother for the kid and yourself.

Ditto on the mexican place  Going there after camping out a couple of nights is pure bliss.

Awesome rack. What a difference custom work makes. This is what a roof rack should look like on the 5th Gen.
