Thats right RHINO KING is actually wearing a helmet... he rode his raptor :shocked2:

JJ if you go w/ weekend warrior get on GD.com and get hooked up w/ Shawn Zang AKA Headinjury... If i were to buy a WW it would be thru him... His customer service is top notch and he can just about knock the socks off any other deal around..

If you get excited trying to guess the size of the sand dune you have hidden in your nose!!! I love the sandy booger trips home..

I think you might hae gotten a diffrent picture pete... the FS model im lookin at shows 20' to the first cabinet???

Only problem with Forest River is the weight... but they do make a very very very nice trailer... just a tad on the heavy side... like it matters to you anyhow..

Just make sure i dont pull the same stunt i did last week.. but ill be there.. i dont want to be THAT guy again haha

my plans appear to be changing so i might be able to make it..

Ill be in the Imperial Valley this weekend... Going to go see my mom and little brother for the weekend..

true... and yes i remember that story...

I have seen tooooo many horror stories about people and THEIR first rails... Growing up in glamis i got exposed to alot of look daddy just took him and the kids on the first ride was 3rd gear wide open and sailed into a bowl killin 2 of the 3 passengers... Guess what he bought a 50k dollar rail and thought he was robby gordon... Im just looking out for the best intrest of the community and giving my opinions... And they are just OPINIONS nothing personal.. btw SAY NOOOOO TO PLAYTECH... that first link JJ is CRAP!!!! Quicksand is a good company but not on top of my list. And sandrail specialties is in the same neighborhood as quicksand..

Think again pete... Hes not going to be launching off the lip at the bottomof comp and landing on the gas which helps destroy trannys... hes not goign to be sidestepping the clutch at 6k to try and wheelie the car another trans killer... Normal shifting and acceleration will not put the hurt on the tranny as much as a more experienced driver having a little fun launching it off some lips and trying to wheelie the darn thing.. Also i would like to think that he would break the Tranny doing something stupid before he breaks himself... People get over confident real fast and start doing things they shouldnt be doing and thats how people get hurt.. Look at me i have a brand new rail w/ a v8 and im gonna go wheelie up comp and OHH GOD THERES A QUAD THERE... or lets jump over this lip blindly cuz i have a big bad a$$ car and oops i just killed someone cuz i was wreckless... IF you limit the car until you are ready to step up to a big bad car that would be the way to go... My honest opinion of what steve should do... is buy Sand~Snakes car... Learn how to drive in the dunes navigate the dunes... then step up to a bit more power and suspension...

Joe i do have my reasons for picking these cars.. they werent the first 3 in the list... First off this is his first car.. I wouldnt suggest the highest horsepower motor, the plushest suspension to soak up your mistakes or the bling cuz your gonna hurt something... I honestly believe a persons first car should be a standard travel BLACK BEAUTY style rail... Learn how to drive and then step up to the bling and horsepower.. As far as the tranny comment i dont believe steve will drive this car hard enough to do any damage to the tranny. being his first car i dont expect alot of abuse... Thats why tranny didnt play big in my choices.. Suspensions unlimited backed by thier QUALITY customer service Wuerth makes a nice and stout car backed by good customer service.. Desert Dynamics.. A very well proven chassis design.. 80% of the parts are there and what a better way to get to know your car how to fix it and what goes into OWNING one of these cars..

Kegs are a b*tch in the dunes... by the time you get it there its so shooken up you gotta let it sit for a day before you can get anything other than HEAD outta the damn thing... Trust me i have tried

havent seen it bud..

i cant count them the little fuckerrrs keep moving around on me..

Wow ynot... i didnt even realize pete posted in here.. hahahahaha... btw im nick remember.. lol Steveo Brand new Suspensions Unlimited - 40k Wuerth Car - 36k If your up for a project car check out this Desert Dynamics Car Just a few that i would seriously consider... that suspensions unlimited car is very appealing simply because Suspensions unlimited spends alot of time in dumont.. if you have any problems just drag it over to thier trailer and i bet they could help a fella out.. Also kathi does free demo rides so you can get a idea how the car handles and feels..

rcjunky Desert Dynamics can be done for his price range if you leave out a few options such as powdercoating and bling bling.. the honda works perfectly fine in that car as don29palms has a DD car w/ the honda and it works very well for him..

your lady shouldnt have a problem towing a 16' flatbed... just tell her look... you have a extra 16' behind you remember that.. take the turns a LITTLE wider and dont turn so quick and be smooth on the throttle and brakes and leave yourself plenty of room... she will be fine.. hell thats what i learned with and i learned towing it with a 83 ranger..

Steve this is something that you cant just up and say i like that one ill take 2 please... lots of things have to be considered and you have to know WHAT to look for.. Saftey Customer Service Frame Design: Is it built right What material Plenty of cross bracing Seat belt tabs/mounting motor mounting Does the car appeal to you? How is the suspension? How heavy is it? Mid Engine, Rear Engine? TONS AND TONS of questions should be asked and things taken into consideration before you even think about purchasing a car.. You should also get as many rides as possible in as many diffrent cars as possible.. Diffrent cars handle diffrent ways.. Have diffrent suspension designs and its not something you just walk into a manufacturers shop and go wow that looks cool ill take it.. DO YOUR HOMEWORK!! There are several forums on the internet that if you take your time and read you will get a good idea who some good manufacturers are. NOW TO MY SUGGESTIONS: Desert Dynamics, Proven Safe, Good Ride, Motor options are whatever you want, Price is very economical for a complete turn key car Drawbacks of the DD car is who assembles it? You need to find a reputable builder to assemble the car for you unless you plan on doing it yourself. If i had 40k to spend on a sand car.. the DD 2 seat mid engine w/ a turnkey 510hp ls1 w/ mendi 4s would be the way i would go... but thats me.. Again get as many rides as possible.. make a list of cars that you like, if they look good to your eye then write them down and investigate further on each company. Not everyone can go and buy a 90k tatum ( cough 3rotortrav ), we have to seek alternatives and there are tons of them out there... Do your homework and make sure that SAFTEY comes before what looks good.. SAFTEY is key. My Priorities: Saftey Customer Service Reputable company ( will they still be around in 3 years when you need help ) Suspension Trans Motor Saftey Asthetics ( how the frame appeals to you )

How big is the trailer... The further the distance from the hitch to the tires the EASIER it is to backup... HELL Even i have a hard time backing up a jetski trailer and i have been towing since i was 14..

I know from towing a 16' flatbed w/ my moms GMC Jimmy loaded w/ 3k lbs of bottles.. its not tooo horribly bad.. just gotta figure out where the motor makes the most power and get used to the way it reacts w/ a trailer attached to it... its something that 30-45 min of freeway and 30 min in a big open parking lot practicing turning around a point and backing up... then all will be good.

it only took me 20 min to get used to petes truck and trailer Granted its only a 16' flatbed but it was new to me.. ( his truck and trailer not towing.. I have been towing a trailer since i got my license.. )

I see you got bored when the car started freakin out, the RC Cars started freakin out, so you decided to use the rhino instead..

OIF 5-7 if you want to go big then your best bet is to find a 1 ton dually and a 35' + 5th wheel to get all your stuff in it.. I suggest the one ton cuz the size your looking for is going to be heavy..
