Wish you miles of happy & safe motoring.

Please do betsow is with whole lot more pics!

Thanks man. My all cars till date have been white so this was no exception.

Congrats on the monster!

Have you got a chance to take it Dune Bashing?

If yes, please post the pictures and your experience?

Jaw-dropping indeed. That humvee looks NICE!!! I am surprised I caught this thread late.

Better late than never - CONGRATS!!! More importantly for chasing your dream and realizing it.

So do you get a nasty look from the Arabs in sedans/hatches when they spot you sitting way "above" them? I don't mean to be racial at all. The reason I ask is I grew up in Bahrain and I remember facing some of that when travelling around in dad's SUVs which were company-owned but could be easily misunderstood by spectators.

OT, If there was one strong reason I'd want to go back and live in the Mid-East, it's the fuel price. Imagine this:
1. For petrol heads, you can just redline all day and dont care about efficiency. A full tank would only cost about 500rs!
2. Cost living is not as steep as the west, so you still save a lot of money.
3. Close to home in case the need arises.

Anyway, wish you a happy ownership experience.
