WOW what an amazing well edited, so quick video. Good surprise to wake up with.

Well done with good shot selection and peppy music, loved it.

Next time upload on Youtube as embedding video here might not work for all users.

Make sure they rated for Xterra and reinforced them nicely on the bumper.

Swivel neck is good option so we can recovery you now from any angle.

Google maps is not showing speed on smaller roads. 

Noticed this last week in sweihan and now in qudra.

And being an active or heavy smoker you will walk 50 -100 meters every 1 hour.

And the funny thing is that these generators will be running on petrol or diesel 😂 

Of course, eventually vicious circle have to be complete.

That some MoVlogs level click bait there Gaurav bhai 😂 I though Toyota were actually cancelling the LC. I think the LC will still be around long after we are all dead and gone. 

Thanks buddy, didn't realize that.

Edited the title for mentioning J200

Well photo chronic and electrochromic are two totally different things. Electrochromic rearview mirrors have been around for a while now

Yes and they are damn helpful in reducing glare.

So whats stopping car manufacturers in using "Photochromic" OR "Electrochromic" windows glasses that turn 50% dark during daylight and completely transparent at night.

Chill @MATHEW FELEX I was just kidding all along, bored today.

@desertdude you win too.

That's the thing you just can't charge anywhere. How many charging ports across the UAE?

And even when we will have enough ports, then the commercialization will kill this whole concept.

Only ABC brand can charge here, Only XYZ subscriber can charge there, different plugs, different rates and what not.

Experience this last summer in London with Hybrid and couldn't able to charge once in 14 days as every port was different and want me to sign up for monthly option than pay as you go.

Have you ever noticed vehicles with DRL's and no DRL's on your rear view mirror when driving on highways ?

 

Photochromic to be precise, I thought its same tech that changes color with presence of light.

I didnt meant for electronically controlled tinting that barry was doing earlier with Ghost Tints. That's too messy for cars and its operation.

Toyota has finally decided to stop production of it's flagship legend Land Cruiser J200 (LC200) by 2022. This shape rolled out in 2008, so after 16 years of service this shape has been schedule to retire. I personally think it was high time for Toyota to pull this trigger as most of the other car manufacturers are changing shapes every 8-10 years. Right @desertdude, as you were waiting.

I'm more excited now to see the market flooding with next LC design until Toyota official announcement.

I love seeing people creativity at wild for rendering defender, supra oops Z4, Jimny etc.

Mitsubishi brand guidelines must be rolling in its grave seeing so many weird brand positioning.

Especially the main cactus growing mitsu logo in WWF format.

Oh, I think most funny was V12.

DRL's increases the visibility of your car, so that other drivers can see you on the road, it looks kool too !!

Really.....?

If person cannot see 3 feet wide metal object in "daylight" he needs new eye test.

i didnt even know about this tech until i saw it now. how cool is this!!!

This is very old tech in eye wear. I rem having my first electrochromic glasses in 1997 as a fun. It's mostly used in optician glasses so person using eyeglasses need not to change glasses in sun and it will change its tint in few seconds.

I think IMC or other recovery service provider have some quick charging service. Worst case scenario, put the car on recovery bed and drop them to the nearest charging point.

It's better to check with the provider (Tesla or any) that what are there terms for roadside assistance.

I didnt meant for factory dark tints.

Google electrochromic feature.

Has anyone thought how cool it will be to have dark glasses at day and clear through night, like electrochromic sunglasses?

Why car  manufacturers aren't going for electrochromic glasses in cars? What's stopping them? Cost, law, safety.....?

Pitstop Arabia is good service for tire change, I assume they must be selling original tires as they are based in Dubai.

I second with Sri, that sparing 30 minutes can actually save you lot more money.

Both were technically different stuck's but I agree it was the same spot...

Means Rav is shy to cross tall dune Crest, no matter whichever angle or speed you attempt...!

I think we have seen same in shwuaib also.

Congratulations @Rahimdad for not opening the engine head.

Well done @shadow79 for using the drill bit to unscrew the stuck plug.

Here are the 9 Nissan used part scrap yards that you can call to get that faulty part - couldn't get its name correctly

Thanks @desertdude for icarsoft recommendation. 

I am actually looking for something like this Bluetooth device that can hook up with smartphone software for code reading and clearing + live data feed of fluid and exhaust related temperature for offroad use.

https://www.icarsoft.com/Product/s-294-icarsoft_bluetooth_multi_scan_tool_i620.html

@Frederic can you check when you are free if this Bluetooth dongle will work on our Pajero's MUT protocol?

@shadow79 existing one didn't worked on my Pajero but I love his torque dashboard for live readings.

Excellent search and suggestion of this new area by @Emmanuel

Thanks @Srikumar for Impeccable planning of 2 diff routes, waypoints, fence, exit strategy resulting in perfect drive even after few nasty recoveries we were able to play in those amazing dunes. Keep it up.

Just the last bit was killing to inflate at 49 degrees under the sun and 44 under the shade (watch).
