    @Niki you want to have a look at: https://www.zerobreeze.com/products/zero-breeze-mark-2?variant=29542713720934

    You may want to consider buying an external sealed lead acid battery and a AC charger to use for use for lighting. I have seen amazon suggesting when I was looking for buying LED lights alternatively I have seen Speedex selling the batteries, so may be you can look at car parts shop.

    The 4 and Half work week is for Govt Sector only and with an option to work from home on Fridays (i.e. 4 day work week!) In all likelihood Private sector will have 5 day work week including Fridays, i.e. Monday-Friday. Need to see how some traditional businesses that work 6 days with Friday off will deal with it. May be they will substitute Friday for Sunday or continue with just Firdays anyways.

    I worked Monday to Friday while I worked here in last 5 years anyways and was missing the Friday events in last few months after getting back to regular schedule (due to a pandemic hiccup it was Sunday to Thursday). I am quite happy about it. this is also an experiment as they are suggesting 4 and half day week which is going towards the new progressive norm of 4 day work week implemented in some Scandinavian countries. from Thursday-Friday to Saturday-Sunday it’s a great progress.

    Thanks to the The OG Yellow Truck marshal @Asif Hussain. When I heard about the drive I totally knew who to go with. After driven with you last year I was looking forward to a great drive with you. Thanks to @Shaaz Shafor switching positions with @Asif Hussainbhai to make it a drive a success. Thanks a lot to @Jeepie for keeping an eye at the back. After previous nights total memory loss, I was glad I didn’t cause much issues, tho was feeling a bit snoozy and tried to steal a few 💤 whenever I could.

    Great Initiative. I have been wanting to make a kit recommended in the advices section but due to my limited knowledge did not go anywhere on it. hopefully now will be a good learning exercise.

    Please go this E11 station, previous one is in the wrong side of the road. Apologies. ADNOC Service Station | Shawamekh-(South West) (755) https://goo.gl/maps/aYA57VMqvch4ZGSy6
  16. Looper
    ADNOC Service Station | Al Wathba (890) https://goo.gl/maps/zyFcAtiFUKbXCXKu8 is perhaps the nearest petrol station which is around 17 KM (26 minutes) away from the meeting point. So plan accordingly. alternatively this might be in the way if coming on E30 ADNOC Service Station | Al Dafra (949) https://goo.gl/maps/bPASW4jtgcUK9Ls9A and this one on E11: ADNOC Service Station | (171) https://goo.gl/maps/Cj7CsK2zSmXWq2cA6 If anything near please let us know.

    Include me in the list. Just is did not want hypothetical risk of drain for this whole day drive. Otherwise I am game.

    This is the usual suspects list,

    Many don’t want to go home it seems - 2 whole days? I didn’t even want to join the intermediate drive. Having said that let me try to waitlist myself or my bitter half to one more drive. The meeting point is where we camped last year.

    I as a professional list maker - make lists and tick them off. frankly it’s a Waste of money for the time being for my use - I know that. I also realized I do have a small socket set from ace that covers most of what is recommended, I only got confused by the bigger mm set available in the shops. Only thing remains is the spare valves.

    Last year I did the Yellow Truck drive as fewbie on 18th Dec with @Asif Hussain as lead and @Vanessa8580 at the back and is still one of the top memorable drives. Did a night camping with my son and @Kailas who was the center forward in the drive (only use of my camping gear outside of my house till date), near the meeting point and still we were the last people to reach to the meeting point. It’s a must go drive for everyone in Carnity.

    I have been working on my @Carnityrecomnded off-road tool kit for sometime now. I am stuck at Sockets what should I get? I never felt the need for a socket wrench or kit but it is in the list and I have to to get it, whether I need or not. On my car only thing I ever broke were the rear bumpers and quick fixed it with some heavy duty zip-ties until I replaced it with the current Mopar steel bumper 4th on my car. Can someone (@Frederic I am looking forward to hear from you) recommend a definitive set I can get and tick off the check list? preferably Yato branded as I am collecting it for this project and I have a OCD so YATO. last two remaining and it’s a old list.

    This drive was one of the most challenging drives I have even been and had a lot of fun driving in that narrow band of tall and highly technical dunes. Sometimes I wondered how on earth are we going to come out of it, but it wasn't no match for @Shaaz Sha. Thanks to @Ale Vallecchi for helping with all the recoveries and @Tbone on in the sweep. It was good catching up with @Santoso Marjuki, @Adhir Saxena, @Sunil Mathew, @Zed & @Thomas Varghese I had installed a Tazer JL programmer on my Jeep and it was the first time driving in the desert with it. Due to the programmer my car was that was playing some other games with me and I was loosing momentum while driving in my usual way.

    I will recommend these three storage items for Jeep. They are pretty handy. 1. Back Seat Cover: I now got 2 of them and I can carry lot of essential stuff in it like radios, deflators, night light and much more. if you can plan properly with one of these plus a bag with rope and shovel you are all set. 2: Purse Holder: I keep my purse in it. 3: Center Console Organizer: some models have coin and card holder. Ordered one of those as well.
