Look forward to it! It’s going to be a great drive by the looks of things 

Sounds good, look forward to it @Ale Vallecchi  if you need any help with middle or back of convoy let me know! Can’t wait to get out in the sand again. 

Welcome @Phillip Khoury, it’s great to see another Ram Rebel join the club. I see you have the ram boxes too, you will quickly learn how useful they are! 
 

Like I said on the other post, drop me a message if you have any questions about getting it set up. I’m still learning every drive about the various positives and negatives of LWB trucks in the desert, but it’s good fun powering through in a big V8! I’d say biggest thing to watch is temp of the transmission because it causes lagging shifts if it becomes too hot. 
 

Hope to see you on a drive soon. 

Mate, congratulations! The class of 2021 is going up the ranks! Look forward to seeing you in the sand soon

Nice, that’s great. You got it from Festival City? They were great for me. 
Haha, welcome to the club. Many times I have crested and I’m sure it will continue. Just takes experience, won’t be an issue with the car generally. 
The Plus is a great car. If you’re ever on a drive with me I’ll show you how to set up the display to give you all the things you need. 
If you’re on the WhatsApp group then you can find my name in there, ping me a WhatsApp and I’ll answer any questions you may have! 

Hi Philip! Congrats on the new car, have you been out in it yet? Is it the Rebel+? It’s a great machine, I’m loving it so far. 

- yes, the fuse is 26, it’s a red one. I can take a pic later. Just pull it with engine off. 
- I use a suction mount from DM for now. Will get a proper mount installed another time when I can get round to it. 
- beware the slowwww and painful speed of the transmission when it gets hot. Ive set mine up so I have a constant view of all T&P’s on the dash when off-road. 

other than that, it’s brilliant. 

Thanks for all your support and advice so far @Brette

Cheers pal! 

congrats to you too @Rob Soughton

Nice one, thank you @Gaurav, excited to see where this adventure takes me! Looking forward to taking it to the next level

Yes @Mark D and @Karthik Raptor the trucks are out in force! Looking forward to a great drive tomorrow, see you all there! 

Great drive today, a lot of fun! The pics look brilliant 

Hi @Brette just to confirm, meeting point is still linking me to the water point in the desert turn off…other side of the road from BES. Can you confirm once again coordinates please? Thanks! 

Thanks @Brette, look forward to it! Nice to see some other big cars on the drive. See you tomorrow morning 

Just now, Ale Vallecchi said:

Hi @Nathan, as a "first responder" you are still in time to join, if you confirm ASAP. Thanks

It’s fine, I’ve joined a personal drive instead on Saturday now, thank you though. Please allow my space to go to another driver. Thanks again 

Hi @Ale Vallecchi sorry I must have missed a message. I will give up my place in the waitlist and try and join a drive next week instead. Thank you! 

Hi @Ale Vallecchijust to let you know I have had to cancel my wednesday drive so this is now my only waitlist for a drive. thanks

Hi, please can you add me to the waitlist...not sure if the Wednesday all day drive I am doing counts as 1st drive or not. thanks

Really looking forward to this drive! I am not able to disable airbags in the truck but will take it easy on crossovers. See you Friday. 

Agreed, great weather and a fun, challenging drive. Thanks as always @Brette and @Russ for guidance. I’ll also upload a couple of photos. See you all soon I hope! 

Nice to see a few trucks out tomorrow! look forward to meeting you all in the desert. 

Hi @Islam Soliman, I’m sorry but I’m going to have to pull out of this weeks drive…something has come up. Please take me off the list. I’ll see you soon hopefully 

@Islam Solimanlooking forward to another morning out with you! I need to get the front end sorted this week first! Will this drive be as technical as last week? 

Yes, it’s got some minor scars but I’ve definitely learned more about how much I can push it. A full exam this afternoon revealed no further damage. @Islam Soliman can you recommend a workshop for the modifications? 
I will research the transmission further but the internet suggests heat may be the issue.
