Thank you @Gaurav, @Chaitanya D@Rahimdad, @Frederic@Wrangeld, @Ale Vallecchi, @Lorenzo Candelpergher, @Jeepie and @Vanessa8580! I couldn’t have done it without your help and guidance :)

After last Friday’s Fossil Rock descent, I think I will still stick to the Newbie drives for a few more weeks; I believe @Wrangeld knows it 😂

@Ahab Shamaa congratulations on the promotion, which is deserved and comes at the right time. The excitement that waits for you (and your dad, as passenger) just gets better and better from here. Don't worry, there are a lot more Fossil Rock type experiences out there for you.

Very well done @Ahab Shamaa!!! Perhaps you may want to leave the Newbie drives behind, and dive right away into the Fewbie drives: there is a treat coming up this weekend (especially if you have an FJ 😉).

Thanks @Wrangeld! In my dad’s words,“Mr. Richard is a desert fox” 😂

@Ale Vallecchi, I wasn’t planning on applying for a promotion to fewbie, but when I saw your post, I did 😀. I’m hoping to join your drive on Saturday; if I have fast enough fingers that is 🤪

Thanks a lot @Mohamed Seidam; I look forward to meeting you in person on a future drive.  Ok, because you’re being extremely nice, I’ll admit that the X-Terra is a formidable beast in the desert 😂 (let’s please keep it between us two).
