Man, I would LOVE to go on that trip - Canyonlands is the best N.P. ever and The Maze is my favorite part. I'm going to put this on my calendar, but no way of knowing this far out if I can actually go or not.
It's been many years since I have been where you are going. At that time, I was in an F-250 with open diffs and had no problems at all but I'm sure that conditions change over time.
Please keep posting your plans and etc. between now and then.
