  1. Drive Theme Another famous Scenic drive, where the focus is more on enjoying the terrain than on bashing any dunes. We will be covering a big portion of the Marmoom Conservation Reserve, trying to spot Oryx, gazelles, and take regular breaks for socializing and taking photos. Bring your camera, snacks, and chairs! Starting from the border with Abu Dhabi in the South-West corner, we will make our way East towards the E66 (Faqa area).

  2. All Terrain tires like the G015 are definitely worth it for the following reasons: 1) Allows for lower deflation vs a HT tire. 2) Stronger sidewall. Sand is soft and forgiving but often we come across some barbed wire or pieces of rock on sabkhas. This is where your HT tire would potentially fail prematurely. 3) knobby AT tire profile will provide better traction during self recovery. During driving in the desert your HT tires are indeed a good option, moving to AT tires will definitely be an improvement with stronger sidewall, and better grip when doing self recovery.
  3. Looks like previous owner had an aftermarket device installed like scan gauge, bullydog, or other. Upon selling the car he probably removed the device but left the cable.
