Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE RIDE

Purpose‑built 4‑door Rubicon

Cliffhanger supplies late‑model Sport Wranglers with front and rear lockers, a 2.5‑inch suspension lift for extra clearance, automatic transmission, and a Freedom Top/Hard Top—kit that balances capability with everyday comfort.

THE PLAYGROUND

Backcountry access around Farmington

The rental program is tuned for backcountry exploration: drivers can expect vehicle setups and advice that make local dirt roads and desert washes approachable for a broad range of skill levels.

THE COMFORT

Capability that doesn’t sacrifice summer comfort

Alongside off‑road hardware, vehicles include air conditioning for hot days and hard or Freedom tops for flexible exposure—practical details that matter on a long day behind the wheel.

What the day feels like

What a day behind the wheel feels like

Expect a hands‑on day: pickup, a quick orientation of a generously equipped Rubicon, then a full day of self‑directed or advised backcountry driving that the operator can tailor to novice and experienced drivers so everyone finds terrain that fits their comfort and skill.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this rental suits—and who it doesn’t.

1
Solo AdventurersA great option so long as the driver meets the age requirement (25+); the vehicle is set up for independent backcountry driving.
2
Foreign VisitorsForeign drivers can rent and may opt for Collision Damage Waivers (CDW) tailored to non‑local insurance needs.
3
Families and Small GroupsThe four‑door Wrangler provides space for passengers and gear, but the primary constraint is the driver age requirement—someone 25+ must sign the rental.
4
Drivers Under 25Not a fit: the rental program requires drivers to be at least 25 years old.
