@Frederic

I will be driving "2016 Nissan Pathfinder 4 Door White" It has 12 inch ground clearance on the sides and rear. Front has 8-9 inch clearance due to spoiler. I have no plans for advanced off-roading with this car. Joining for fun as a newbie.

I have driven before on small dunes in Al Qudra and burried village in Al Madam.

It does have front eye hook provision and rear hook.

I have attached the picture of my car.

Hi @Dharmendra Parmar unfortunately the ground clearance (lowest point of the vehicle) of Nissan Pathfinder 2016 is only 7inch, where we state in the drive topic it should be minimum 8-10 inch to avoid damage to your vehicle during offroading.

Because of this unfortunately we will not be able to accept your car to the drive.

Hi @izzumonv i understood from last weeks drive that your car did not have a towpoint. Is that sorted now ? Could you share a photo ?

Kind reminder @izzumonv

Hi @Frederic,

One quick question, found this air compressor on Amazon, is it good to consider?

Hi @Bhaskar these are not really bad, but will take a very long time to inflate your tyres. They are more made for regular cars that need to top up the pressure every once in a while.

A more heavy duty option is this:
