Gaurav

I really look forward to welcome you again @Enrico Biscaro. Thanks for joining my drive.

This seems a very good idea and feature suggestion @munkybizness. Thanks for that. Will see what tech boys can come up with for this request (already requested).

Now you raised all the curiosity on what actually happened.....?

Few cons of air jack in off-roading Staying away from exhaust line is a real challenge, to burn a hole in 1000+ dhs Jack vs 150 Dhs trolley scissor jack. Inflating do take some time to setup jack and compressor to inflate. If it burst while in operation will cause more damage to car or person. I have seen once in operation, took him more than 15-20 minutes to lift one side of LC.

Seems like Fewbie, will confirm soon. @Rjducos you don't need additional lights, your car high beam is fine to drive.

Of course from the second drive onward you are fine to bring family and friends as you know now what level of concentration is needed for offroading. Night drive need a bit more focus but it will be fun for her to see it. Just make sure you workout a good deal with her, as soon tables will turn other way around after few drives, lol.

Yes absolutely you can join that, as in Abu Dhabi Absolute Newbie and Newbie drive is same.

@Srikumar have been working very hard on those pre-qualification guideline with lot of feedback and inputs from seniors to make it relevant, fair, challenging and yet safe for everyone. It's almost ready and he should be rolling out soon.

Very valid point expressed. These uncertainties, challenges, failure, accomplishment make off-roading exciting than 4 hour long drive with cruise control on the highway.

More content for your #brandaffinity, lol. I'm glad you enjoyed last night, I absolutely love desert at night, driving, recovering, chilling at any state.

See if OEM sells lower temp thermo, go with that.

85 is too late even. Look for 70-76 degree thermostat, if it exists in Jeep (I'm sure it will be). Pajero stock thermo open at 85 and low temp opens at 76, both available from dealership. Rem, thermo opening and closing is at slow motion and not an instant electronic on/off switch. 76 degree thermo start opening at 76 degrees and will take a minute or two to fully open by the time temp will rise to 80-85 degrees.

Congrats @Lorenzo Candelpergher for nailing the definition of "Great Leader". To take the whole convoy from point A to point B. I salute you with my utmost respect, for taking everyone together (a difficult task) to achieve your goal than leaving a few (easiest task). Secondly to support the new driver or weaker car to push beyond and PROVE IT in the end. Well done, BRAVO. 👏

Trip Report We had a beautiful full-house turnout blessed with extra support and some higher-level members making a very distinctive convoy mix to start the weekend night drive. Topped with I was driving Fredy's little blue with manual gear added additional fun and challenge to the night. Thanks, @Frederic for joining to support me after your morning AN drive. Everyone showed up on time and started deflating and getting ready for the drive much before 10:00 PM meeting time. As we started on time we have had very good scope to achieve the pre-decided end at Bidayer without altering or any cut-short. All the newbies from @AbdullaB, @Nafiz, @munkybizness, @Daniel Yang and @Peter Hager drove exceptionally well considering the night drive is a bit scarier for newbie level due to limited view. And like I said on the drive, while learning off-roading don't get demotivated with your stucks and refusals, instead learn from them to grow further. Everyone gets stuck, as that's the nature of this hobby, so simply enjoy, learn, move on and repeat. Thanks, @Looper for your second lead support, that was very helpful to navigate throughout. @Fabien Monleau and @Abdul Rahman AK it was good to see you both for the first time and hope you have enjoyed the relaxed fun of Newbie level drives. @Ben84 and @topgear it was good to see you both after a long time and it was a pleasure to drive with you both securing the tail end with confidence. Many thanks, @Rizwanm2, @M.Seidam and @Jeepie for the wonderful support and help to keep the whole convoy intact and moving at all times.

Have u look for something like this from ARB or at least if ARB makes any adapter that can go in between. Due to different companies standard and market they serve such male/female coupling adapters are always challenge to find.
