Tahoe is indeed much better than LC since very long time. Everything you said is true about Tahoe. Only thing it lacks is the rock solid resale value compare to LC as people are almost blind here when it comes to Japanese and don't wanna try anything else for the sake of loosing tiny bit more resale value. My wife drives Trail Blazer and I kid you not it has best safety features and strength with very comfy ride on highway, like driving on a sofa compare to any other Japanese 4x4's I have owned.

Hello all, or at least to those still interested. I did my 120K servicing a couple of weeks back and asked the garage to include the rear axle cleaning & greasing to get a shot at fixing this issue. And although I don't use the car daily, during the times I did there was no 'tok' sound to be heard anymore. I drove in heavy traffic multiple times already and every time was intently listening to confirm this and I am really glad to say that it was resolved. I had a couple of job done as well (i.e. full brake overhauling) during the servicing so I will not attest the fix to the axle cleaning & greasing 100%. Maybe around 98% only... Hopefully this also helps those experiencing the same before they go wild replacing unnecessary stuff.

Here are mine- 1) Astronomy - I've been it doing for 45 years. 2) Cosmology- Ditto 3) Writing about astronomy and cosmology on a freelance basis for clients all over the world 4) Delivering talks and lectures to the paying public- the person or organisation that hires me gets to to choose the topic.

Thanks for the kind words @Rahimdad. You are right, she enjoys the drives and the bonding. We had a fantastic day and look forward to many more of them in the future !

Trip Report - What a wonderful time with amazing people and dreamy weather. From being on time, to the smiles, to following advice, all did very well. Starting on time from the meeting point and heading towards the deflation point was quick. The briefing was precise with great advise. @Gaurav bhai in lead followed by @Frederic, @Emmanuel, @Shamil, @AKR and me in the sweep. Some hot air balloons taking off while we had the brief was amazing. Starting with small, technical and white sand dunes we had a couple of stucks in the first 300 meters. However a good track adjustment saw us breeding through quickly with very few refusals heading towards the long range dunes. We were welcomed to the long range dunes with a beautiful sand formation. After a few cool pics we took off on dream slopes. Everyone managed well. We had so much fun that it's impossible to state that in words and I doubt that we got any action pics. At times We came across some soft patches, but the best was the "Leap of faith". It was blinding as you head to the top with a light and smooth jump, just enough to give you butterflies in the stomach. We would have loved to continue all day, but with a few more small technical dunes we took the path to the Love Lakes. It was a great break with great food and drinks and some nice chat. Just as the heat of the day was about to kick in we inflated and left. My best moments were seeing @Frederic gelling in with his daughter, I see her growing in confidence and love to see them bond. Off roading really brings out the best in us. I've uploaded my pics on the Gallery. https://carnity.com/gallery/category/150-fewbie-drive-lisaili-desert-27-sep-2019

For me my hobbies have to be as follows. 1) Off-roading. 2) 10 pin bowling 3) Cricket 4) coin collection. I have coins which have already been discontinued including AED 5 coins from the 80s, special coins introduced by UAE, Dutch Builders, even some rare coins from the great Roman Empire one of the first forms of currency to be introduced to the world.

Started of as a hobby and turned semi professional at it. Music production and sound engineering. Realistic Flight Simulator. Current weapon of choice. Flight Simulator X steam edition and favourite bird to fly the PMDG Boeing 777. Semi professional at video editing also but ever since I started getting paid work for it I stopped enjoying it so I stopped. Mostly because clients want a Hollywood blockbuster at late night cable infomercial budget. Wrenching on my and buddies ride is obvious of course. I would love to learn electronics as in where I can design my own PCB or maybe even start off with simple troubleshooting, diagnostics and repairs on things like lcd tvs, mobile phones and motherboards etc etc. Also really really really interested in astronomy nowadays ever since seeing the Hubble deep space image and first images of a black hole. Still looking for that right type of telescope at the right price to come along

Everyone has few hobbies or passion that they look up to in free time. List your best 4 hobbies - car/non-car related. Here are mine: Driving DIY Craft wood work Plants

Is it True the New Tahoes are much better than Land Cruiser? while having a debate in office this topic came up that the Tahoe is Cheaper more Powerful , more Economical in Fuel vise, more better options, better torque ,more horse power, more options better features more space. Has finally Chevy came up to give better competition Toyota or it only a Myth. I fell in love with a Tahoe I drove today for me it was far much better than driving LC200. Lets see what my other friends have to say. Is America Great Again!

not all of them 😭 mine is JZX but did not come with the box, but maybe because I got the 3 ton instead of the 2 ton. I secured everything with ratchet straps like this one so that jack won't go anywhere.

I thought it could be saleem also

Cars - researching, buying, driving, fixing, modifying, selling, everything. Off-road - exploring new places, meeting new faces, training others and learning new stuff. Photography - more of ex hobby, as I tend to forget basics if not using the skills often. Biking - if weather permits, really calms me down. Swimming - occasionally now, just had a dip today after a very long time. Music - thumping playlist on long drives especially. Wish list Professional photography on regular basis, if time permits to pursue. Astronomy - if I get good guidance and training locally. Cross country off-road exploration. Hiking - Extreme level.

Nice feat, keep it up.

Perfect Emmanuel, well done. Rahimdad our most love Superman is the only offroader carrying the biggest balls at all time.
