Yes @Patrick you are correct, Sunday

Thank you @M.Seidam I understand RSVP closes at 4 so if I hear from MOPAR and there is still space in your drive before it closes I’ll join back up again. But for the meantime count me not attending until further notice. Cheers

@Jaro Tuzinsky @JeromeFJ @Zed @Amr Aydin @Haitham Khattab @munkybizness @Joseph Raju Thanks you gents for your warm congrats. @Zed i am sure that we will need your V8 to pull me out! @munkybizness I dont believe you could go wrong with a VTC on the sand

@Benjamin no worries at all . Take care and see ya next time .

The only issue with 285 upgrade will be, the speedometer will be slightly off. @Kailas never got his done. I did mine, but I could have done with the Tazer JL (I bought it later). They are scaring you with the warranty, as this process is a grand in billing for them. edit: I did not do the software flash immediately and did it later about one/two services after the upgrades. I did it due to my OCD, as in the back of my mind the KM reading is not right and as a result I couldn’t sleep properly in most nights.

Hello fellow Jeeper (yay I get to say this now), when you upsize to bigger/wider tires, the speedometer is not accurate anymore and the transmission shifts is no longer optimum (it was optimized for stock size tires 255). Bring a measuring tape and $20 (for adding new VIN license) and with the magic of OBD + JScan app we can calibrate the TCM so the speedometer & shift timings are calibrated to new tire height 😁 OR you can remain as is, the automatic shifting will be a bit late (high RPM as you said), but since you'll be driving manual, you sir are the Computer and you control the shifting 😊

One more VTC to the IMs! Keep flying @Joseph Raju

Well done @Joseph Raju ! Congratulations !

Well done @Joseph Raju !

Congrats @Joseph Raju

Well done @Joseph Raju, congratulations!

Hello, I plan to purchase a new Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 2023; what is the difference between buying at Jeep Trading Enterprises(al Futtaim) and Jeepers Edition? Also, What additional fees will be added to the ex-showroom price? Thanks

Will do thanks @JeromeFJ I’m hoping I’m not being too optimistic with it being out by Saturday. Ideally I’m hoping today or tomorrow if not I’ll inform you.

@Benjamin, you have been added to the drive for Sat morning. Kindly confirm during the day tomorrow when your car is back from the workshop. Thank you.

Got it @JeromeFJ no problem

Dear Desert Drivers, Thank you for signing-up for this FB+ drive on Saturday. This area South of Nahel offers beautiful dunes, generally empty. Sharp ridges, deep bowls, high climbs, it has everything, and beautiful views in addition. Some faces are steep, and it can be quite impressive in some occasions. Be sure you come fully awake, with a car in top condition. Current confirmed attendance @Stumpy Paj @Amr Aydin @Gurcharan Mehta @KAMALIO @Gary F @Krishna R @Tharun Kumar V @Zed @Pascal @Ale Vallecchi Wait List @Benjamin (1) @Abdul Basit Khan (2) @Deepak Eswar, this is a Fewbie Plus drive, and you current level is FB, I'm sorry, but you cannot attend or be on the waitlist. @Paolo Pellegrini, your registered level is FB+, but you have not yet driven at this level with @Carnity, and your last drive with us was 5 months ago. I will ask you to do at least one FB drive, before attending FB+. This is to ensure you can enjoy and remain comfortable with the drive level. The grading structure has been recently updated accordingly. https://carnity.com/forums/topic/16479-off-road-club-grading-structure-v30/#comment-125525 Thank you for your understanding
