No kidding! I can't believe how cheap fuel has gotten to be lately. I still doubt the dunes will be any more crowded from year's past though. The economy has already forced alot of people to sell their stuff. Halloween was already down from years past. BLM even said the crowd was down big time. I'm thinking there will still be a good turnout, but it may take another season or two to get like it was the past few years. That's if the sport/ hobby ever gets back to the peak that it was at. It may take a while like everything else. Here's a couple pics from T-Day weekend... 2003 2006 I can't see it gettin anywhere near what those pics are like but we'll see!

Tim you know you are always welcome w/ us. We don't get loud and crazy anymore like we used to. Mostly just laugh our a$$es off at night around the campfire. :peeps:

DAYUM! Big baller now huh?? Can we still be friends? Congrats Paul. That is badass! I love the layout...and big azz TV. :ah:

sweet! Yea man offer still stands. Come on out. We won't be too hard to find. I'll chat w/ ya before then.

pshh...weather looks AWESOME if you ask me! :dumbass: :?:

I'm gettin the itch now. I just spent the last 2 days tweekin on the hauler cleaning the hell out of it and re-organizing some crap. (was long overdue) Threw out alot of unnecessary chit and stocked it up with some new things. I'm feelin it! Gonna be a great weekend. We're rollin in thurs night sometime and staying as late as possible on sunday.

They don't build many cars with lots of lights and accesories unless specifically requested. One time they did build a custom alternator setup for a customer's car where it ran off the front sprocket and charged while the car was moving. A stock stator will supply plenty of juice for a small set of lights, but I added another set plus 2 fans instead of one to cool the larger radiator in this car so I would like more. I think I overloaded mine a couple times and that abuse is what took out the rectifier. Besides when they built my car they used the motor that I supplied to them so they didn't ask if I wanted anything special done to it. There's alot of things I think they should do to their base models, but I guess most people don't drive like I do so their base design is good enough for them I suppose.

jo momma!

It would have to be pretty far out there. Riding in the desert anywhere just outside of town is illegal now and they are crackin down on riders.

Damn not bad David! Awesome.

not bad at all! Extreme

Right on Bob will do. Here's a better pic of my bike... I think I've met you before. Bobby right? With the hopped up pinto? You knew Heather and Mark Bourn a while back right? I think I met you at Heather's apartment. Talk about a memory right? Some things just stick I guess. That or I am completely off here. :angry2: I'll keep an eye out for ya next weekend.

haha no prob whiz...or the lack there of! :angry2: j/k Her brithday was listed at the bottom of the forum index page. That's why skyz posted about here after clicking her profile and saying to herself :?: . Pizza does kickass, unless it's f*ckin Tony's frozen azz no-pepperoni having muffhuggan shhhiat!

You should have just read my post earlier in this thread! If the gear is worn it can misfire at random times. One or multiple cylinders (usually close to each other in firing order) will misfire and set p0300 codes. Pull out the distributor and check it. You could also have worn bushings. I bet that gear is worn though. Look at the teeth closely. Usually 1/2 the teeth will be paper thin and the other half will be thick and fine. A bad coil is pretty rare with these especially since it's only one affected cylinder.

Oh yeah huh. :angry2: I didn't even think of that. No biggie though. I know sometime during the weekend of T-day I'll be jonzen for the rail, but I really am looking forward to burning through some gas on the 2 wheeler and qWad. Tracking was right on. Rick's called me today to let me know they receievd everything. They will have it done next week and I should probably have it by early the following week sometime due to the holiday. In addidtion to the upgraded HD rec and stator, they are hooking up a whole new custom harness for the recitfier to stator with all new connectors. I should be all dialed in then!

Good seeing you out there, John. I didn't realize that was your first trip out w/ the car! haha Badass. Sounds and looks like you had a great time.

I didn't start the thread looking for an invite for dinner, but thanks Jodi. Like I said, we already don't have plans on purpose and won't be out till late Thursday anyways. I was just starting some T-day conversation is all.

Check the power at the truck's accessory/ charge pin at the trailer connector while it's running. If it's good you won't have to waste anymore time checking the truck out w/ fuses and stuff. It may be an issue w/ the trailer.

You should have just made the suggestion. Besides those two rules or common sense laws are already on our Dune Ettiquette flyer/ page... http://www.dumontduneriders.com/dune_flyer.pdf They are just worded slightly different. I'll add them to the rules page though. I doubt it will end the azzhats from speeding through camps though. I don't think these guys read the rules or give a damn....or can read in the first place!

I don't think I am gonna make it at this point Terry. I'l let you know if I decide to though. Thanks. Who all is going out w/ you?

So what is everyone planning on doing out at D for their get fat T-Day feast? I might just do a turkey at home and bring it out already cooked. The deep fryer is badass and all...but it cuts into my dune time. We usually do it up with the whole shabang....turkey, taters, yams, stuffing, green bean casserole, corn, salad, rolls, fruit, etc etc, but not too sure this year. It's looking like a turkey sammich and a G&T. Whatcha got planned?

whoa. that thing hits the limiter fast :ah:

That goes without saying.

I just realized wingnut violated rule #1 of the dune pic of the month...the pic must be YOURS. He stole it from me so 80grit wins by default. wingnut is disqualified!!!!

What would you like us to do, Pat? This is quite entertaining.
