Dear Desertnauts as this will be a Rush Hour drive, sorry for being late in updating you with further information about tomorrow's meeting point and itinerary. Since the previous drive ended at Faqa, coming from Solar Park, we'll revert the route, and start from Faqa on our way back to Dubai. We'll move most of the drive against the slip-faces, which may actually not be much of a disadvantage, as the hard faces in this whole area have lately shown a tall and large "step" of very soft sand, that has inhibited most of the criss-crossing attempts. I'll soon post the meeting point on the site. Please make sure that you reach around 3:30PM, so that we can start promptly at 4:00PM, for the 2 hour drive. The convoy order will be announced tomorrow afternoon, prior to the start of the drive. @Ranjan Das, @Waqas Parvez, @MMansoor, @Ahmad Shaker, @Charbel, @Gregory, @ASAD., @Tom B, @Fabien Monleau and @Pacific, I am looking forward to take you back to Dubai in time for the beginning of the weekend. See you all tomorrow.

@Ale Vallecchi - @Ranjan Das dropped out. I was in waitlist 1 so got admitted to the drive.

Very valid point to consider the starting point really @Ale Vallecchi solar park , South lisaili and Qudra noticed to have this change . I like the the Rush our poster 👆

@Aisha S @Rob S @Fabien Monleau @Josh T. @Tom B @Karthikeyan Govindarajan @Prakash Anoop @Alphin Aloor @Anoop Nair @ASAD. The meeting point has been updated on the drive post. Also, since we have a long WL of members looking for a first drive of the weekend, incase you are unable to make it please sign out in advance so that the rest can get a drive this weekend. We would be starting early at 6:00 AM. Expect a fast paced drive with plenty of opportunity to shovel and self recover your cars. Also, as we are visiting this area after a gap of more than a few months this would be a part exploration drive as well. Convoy Numbering and radio channel would be posted on Saturday evening.

Can't even wait for the convey list tomorrow, not to mention the drive itself !!

Congratulations @Prakash Anoop👋👋

@Hisham Masaadconfirmed yallah push 💪

@Dr Tanveer Ahmed My rims are from the same guys that did the mods. They did trim the wheel wells and add fender extensions to keep the edge of the wheel flush with the body as the wheel have a negative offset which widens the track of the wheels. It depends on what size of wheel/tire you want to run. But have seen plenty on other forums running 35's without doing any fender trimming, but these seem to be on a 275/285 wide tire with a slight tweak to the AHT and bending the pinch weld in the wheel well. I also like the AHT suspension as easy to get in and out. With the changes that I had made, don't see any real difference in comfort and road noise from when the car was in stock.

No. Your car has a glitch. The fuel gauge stuck in full which means that your car is not using any fuel during driving and the tank is full. Dont sell your car. you got free fuel for life. However, NEVER fold the third row seats flat. If you do that, the glitch will be gone and you will go back to filling fuel for your trips. Source: Trust me bro!

@Hisham Masaad great news !!! I'm definitely available
