    Bros, this area, is it more technical or large dunes. Planning to bring family along with kids in tow, want to decide what car to use the big infiniti or the nimble xterra

    Hello Ahmed Bhai,

    The area starts with Big Dunes but towards the end the dunes get very small and technical, would suggest the X-terra as the Big infinity might struggle in the smaller dunes close to our final Destination (Ghost Town)

    Thanks

    Thanks Saif Bhai, will consider your suggestion and check that Xterra can take in all three kids safely with car seat, belts and all.

    Thanks to all for registering for our Friday PM drive. We have a good line up to enjoy our afternoon in the sand. 😀

    Due to several DO drives happening simultaneously this weekend, the number of Marshall’s available is limited. Therefore the drive is now closed for additional registrations (except Deputies who can contact me directly).

    The last participant will be ahaghshenas. See you all tomorrow. :drive:
