    Default Early September NJ to Colorado Rockies, Moab (Arches) and Back to NJ

    Hello Roadtrip America,

    This is my first posting, just found this site. Excuse me in advance if I have not searched first for this info, but I thought maybe I could get many of my questions answered with this one post?

    As in the title, going from NJ to Arches Nat'l and back here. With my girlfriend. Sleeping in back of pickup (have a cap on back, and platform to sleep on with storage underneath. Bringing Coleman stove, cooler, etc.

    Two main questions,

    #1 Our truck is a 1995 Ford F150 with 150,000 miles. What do I need to look out for, regarding the truck? I am putting new steel wheels on and the tires are relatively new. Anything else I should be careful about? How to feel confident that this truck will get us there and back?

    #2 We will be going through the Rockies and visiting friends in the Buena Vista, CO area. How cold are we looking at in early September, first and second week?

    Hope these questions are not too vague and thanks in advance.

    Gary
