Good Morning.

Enrico and Julie answering

This would be my 2nd drive, but I am still very, very green. In addition my wife would like to come and see how it feels driving in the desert so this drive is perfect for us. 

We drive a GLS 500 4Matic with air suspension clearance 12 inc as long as I do not drive above 60 KM/hrs :-)

Confirm I have the front and rear tow point with tow eye.

Hi guys, I am absolutely new to off road experience, I have Hummer H3 well maintain newly and It has all specs what you mentioned in your request, but do we need flag, Rope, air compressor for upcoming drive? 

You only need tire deflator, gauge and compressor for your first drive.

I will carry spare radio for absolute newbie drive that you can use.

From the second drive onward you need:

  • Safety flag, tire deflator, tire pressure gauge, shovel, fire extinguisher, medical kit, radio (walkie-talkie), air compressor.

 

You can check here what all gears is needed for various level of ranks
