Hi Frederic,

Pleasure to meet you!  My responses below.

• Please share your vehicle details - Jeep, grand cherokee, brown, 2018
• Do you have any prior off-road experience? If yes, pls share details. - I attended a masterclass session (4h) with Gaurav on 26 October 2024.  No experience beyond that.
• Confirm your vehicle has front and rear tow hooks/eyelets. --> Confirmed
• Advise if you don’t have a programable radio and safety flag. - I have ordered a programmable radio and it should be with me today/tomorrow.  I have a safety flag but struggle with attaching it to the jeep (no shop has any bracket for a grand cherokee).  Any recommendations would be welcomed!  Otherwise, we may have to go with a suction option.

 

My understanding is that I am still on the waiting list and cannot attend the event unless other people drop out, correct?

 

Thanks a lot and glad to be part of Carnity!

Thanks for the quick response @Kuba Roszyk ! I have added you to the going list because i have expanded the RSVP total. Main reason for this expansion is the fact that this is a gentle overlanding style of drive, so the plan is to keep it easy. In combination with the helpful support i have i was able to extend the convoy to a bigger size.

@Frederic hello mate! Nice to e-meet you and excited to join the first drive 😁

 

Details as requested...

Please share your vehicle details - Make, Model, Color, and Year: Ford Ranger Raptor 2024 - Orange.

Do you have any prior off-road experience? Only rocky trails with a jeep (not in UAE) some X Quarry sandbox stuff with the Raptor. Nothing in the desert.

Confirm your vehicle has front and rear tow hooks/eyelets. Confirmed. 

Advise if you don’t have a programable radio and safety flag. I do have both. Plus a compressor and a deflator (camel brand one). Haven't used it yet though...
