  1. you're a machine @Looper 💪💪 💪💪 💪💪
  2. Hi @Lea Degner, looks like you have cancelled you attendance correctly no longer in the guest list. cheers!
  3. That's my drifting style on the 1m tall ridge I got stuck on on Saturday 😎🤣 Thanks for all the examples and info@Zed 🙏🙏🙏
  4. Thanks @Zed. Indeed I have checked that sand mode (4H) does engage rear difflock right away. Can turn it off and keep it off. 4L does not automatically switch it on.. 4L becomes manual on and off. Given your descriptions above.. think maybe the 'sand mode' ( 4H + diff lock ) is aimed at american baja type flat sand desert driving rather than up and over of dunes.... ie lots of drifting on fairly level ground. yeah the cresting whilst turning over it @Julien Recan left me thinking about this all weekend.
  5. @Julien Recanand I had a brief chat about using rear diff lock engaged in the sand full time. I've been using this recently and have seen some notes that Jeep sand runner has the same functionality when in desert offroad mode (up to 100kph) What's the pros and cons of this? I note that this mode (on my vehicle at least) requires center diff engaged as well for 4WD (or just 2H), which is the default in sand mode. I did half my drive on Saturday in 4H + rear and centre locked, then half in 4A (unlocked centre and rear diff). Could not perceive any difference to my driving experience in the large dunes in nahel. Added page from manual from reference for locks and modes etc. @ZedI'm sure you have some opinions on it?
  6. Bro nooooo... Jeep didn't make it?? Can hit me up on instagram to get my phone number if U wanna ask any specific questions etc. Def go take it for a test drive and see what you think. It's certainly much longer than the Jeep so the feel might not be what you're after. It's a boat.... But it's a jet-boat 😎 Best luck with the car hunt 🙏

  8. Thanks everyone for a excellent drive. @JeromeFJgreat leading taking us into some exciting and new (for me) terrain. Really spectacular scenery. The FB+ debutantes @Aserand @Shaun J drove supremely well, and were very handy with the shovels digging my car or from the full body cresting on the ridge! I claimed first stuck of the drive 😎 Both myself and @Robk got to enjoy the full pleasure of long wheel base vehicles in technical dunes with some shovels and ropes. The big bowls were great fun, as were the back and forth crossing of ridges towards the end of the drive. Was great to see big combo of FJs, jeeps, the big patrol, and the retro livery LC71 dominating everything that Jerome put in our parh Here's a couple of captures videos of the convoy... I'll get some more of my camera tonight I hope. Cheers and see you all in the sand again soon. https://photos.app.goo.gl/gTS4rsRDK2pW3i1h7 Side sloping https://photos.app.goo.gl/nRtnjCE9gZAvxry5A Briefing sky time-lapse https://photos.app.goo.gl/6VsNe46o3uZczysdA Team loops https://photos.app.goo.gl/kJqXDdDDf7BrjSQAA Ridge crossing with refusal
