Love the Five Guys in the background. They started here in the Wash DC area years ago.

Wow! Incredible! What a different way of life to over here.


What a great set of pics. :thumbup:

Thanks it was a great vacation, but I have a ton of codes/repairs to do. My headlights look like a milk bottle and my MAF has some sand damage. The 4x4 solenoid is toasted, o2 sensor wires abraded, etc.

I recommend carrying some pantyhose in the car and if you need to you have an expedited pre-filter, duct tape and plug kits.

Thanks for posting up these pics! Cool to see! Has the sand storm demolished your paint too? Almost sounds like an insurance job, if that’s an option over there?

Paint is ok and I only use the term ok for the nose. Insurance only keeps you out of jail in an accident or from getting your head cut off in a fatal wreck if you're not at fault.

I'm thinking of repainting with a super white aircraft paint as it can stand up to hail at 550mph sand shouldn't be a problem...

Thought I'd post a picture of a field expedient repair in the desert...

This was from an earlier trip to Qatar and was fixed as soon as we hit Doha. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cb67617b12.jpg
