All credit to my lovely wife who really did well for her very first drive….@Frederic we should organize a lens night drive to capture these kid of pictures with a proper digital SLR…Just a suggestion … Our Instagram will be grateful

Could be the culprit of the refusals?

Didnt notice until @Gaurav pointed out one of my rear tires. Shop said the alignment on the rear was a bit of a mess and caused the uneven wear on the inside of the rear tires. And I thought I didnt miss to check anything

Damn! My wife was right. She actually told me, during the last recovery. Do you think his tires are OK? They seem a bit flat inside...Poor me now when I show her these pictures after I said NO WAY!

@Tbone have spotted this during the drive but we decided to inform him after to not to cause panic.

My second night drive and I can safely say I'm falling more in love with night driving than the day. The calm in the desert at night combined with the simple hum of our engine as the only sound crackling through makes me feel like I'm on an exploratory adventure - for both the mind and the body. In @Brian Dev's words, it's a "trance" indeed. As I settled into the drive, I cued Tchaikovsky and let the orchestral scores announce our grand entrance every time our lights opened a dark area, a feat occuring every other second.

But what good is an orchestra if not for the conductor guiding the symphony. @Gauravand his light bar opened up new expressions of the desert sand, sometimes even a distant planet. Halfway back @Tbone kept the string of the halfway quartet connected. Waving and dancing on slopes, he gave fervent new expressions for the score we were crafting. And in the back, the calm and soft @Janarthangiving the resolute affirmation that our score was strong.

On a serious - and less poetic note - @Gaurav Soni, I must apologize if I was unable to find the right spacing. I could see in my mirror that I was sometimes forcing you to stop in uncomfortable spots.

Thank you all for a splendid drive. And let's go see Mars next time.
