Tiger LeBrun is known by many as the Tech
Guru at Quigley Motor Company, and he
brought his jaw-dropping van to the Top
of the World trail. Contrary to what
you might think, the van took
the hard lines, maintained
its stability, and kept
onlookers smiling as
they watched.RED ROCK

Steven Scott was giving the Z-Turn a try on Moab Rim when the Blazer coughed
out a passenger U-joint and a rear axleshaft croaked, forcing some trailside repairs.T
HOUGH MANY EYES OF THE OFF-ROAD COMMUNITY WERE FOCUSED ON THE
seven-slotted inhabitants of Moab, Utah, during the 2019 Easter
Jeep Safari, it was hard to avoid the fullsize machines chugging
through the trails. What started eight years ago as a close-knit
gathering of friends has grown into a weeklong blowout of big rocks,
bigger iron, and lots of excitement. We joined the 2019 Fullsize Invasion
and watched as 4x4 fanatics conquered trails like Moab Rim, Behind
the Rocks, and Pritchett Canyon, to name just a few. The sense of cama-
raderie grew throughout the week as winch lines were pulled, drivers
put faith in spotters, and trailside welds were burned in. By the end of
the week, a party was well overdue, and Fullsize Invasion participants
flocked to be part of the celebratory gathering and raffle that was gra-
ciously put on by the Fullsize Invasion sponsors.
With the event growing in fullsize leaps and bounds each
year, you can expect Fullsize Invasion to continue
well into the future. Want to join the rev-
elry in the red rocks? Keep your eyes on
