I would love to go. Never been there yet. Just moved to AZ. But don't think two wheel drive is a good idea out there

Default two wheel drives

your right.
However I have seen some two wheel drive trucks do well. if they are set up right.

do you have any other type toys?
ATV, Motorcycle, UTV, dune buggy?

My truck does just fine. in fact the second pic you will see the rear tires buried some. I do that on purpose so my dog can get in. I hate lifting buck my yellow Lab.
you can kinda see him under the truck.

well my one and only trip to glamis this year with tht new polaris ended up with the wife driving my RZR XP and I followed in the truck all day. I listened to music and ran the AC. The wife kept ridding off into the dunes... she would disappear for a while and then pass the truck real quick ...driving off into the dunes again. LOL

If was was stateside I totally would of hit ya up! I love glamis. My home away type of place. It is first on my list of places to take my truck when i get back since I have yet to play in the sand with her!. It would be cool to maybe meetup if we cross paths. I usually am at wash 4. I roll around my on cbr600 banshee.
