I wish I had the 31st off!!
The damn DOD doesn't celebrate Nevada day

Can't make it out for the weekend before Halloween due to work, so i'm looking to make up for it by going Veterans day weekend AND Thanksgiving. (Thanksgiving is locked in)
I know it's a a month out but I wanted to throw it out there and see if anyone was planning on heading out that weekend. The actualy Holiday is Tuesday Nov 11th so we'd prob go Saturday-Tuesday.
Getting a great job after getting out of the Air Force is a blessing but acruing vaction time and starting at 0 right before Dumont season sucks
Lemme know!

Well it was just a day trip for me but a great day it was. Rolled in a few minutes after 6:00am as the sun was just starting to peek and was loving the nice cool weather. Dropped the quad out of the truck bed and was ready to go feel that sand under the wheels. Started meeting people as they woke up, showed up....and a few minutes later everyone was firing up! Man that first ride was as close to perfect as you can get, smooth sand, good lines, cool breeze, and a great pace.
The next ride was more of the same..it was getting warm but as long as you were moving it was alllll gooood.
I think I loaded up around 1:00pm to head out, I planned on doing another run but after the group effort of snatching out a stuck motor home I was beat. If I had a car I probably would have done another but that quad wears me out! Came home and talked to the wife about a car lol.
It was great finally meeting you all and even better riding with you. Thanks Terry for leading some great runs and sorry for getting you sideways in that motor home!
Until next time...

Im in for any saturday day trip doesn't matter the date. I'd prefer saturday because its football season on a quad though so hopefully Adam or some other quads go. Either way im in. Need a day trip shake down before a long weekend.
-
Let's do another early morning run before we all go the week before Halloween!
I'm in for sure, just got the quad put back together today with a fresh top end, going to duck creek this weekend but need a sand day to test it before a long weekend!
-
Pics or I don't believe this trip even happened.
-
We'll prob go out the weekend before as well. I def need to do an early morning quick trip before hand to test out the bike after the motor rebuilt this summer.
-
Update for anyone interested. My truck passed smog today "with flying colors" said the guy. I won't be posting on a public forum what state my truck was in or where I took it but if you're in the same boat as I was in and would like some info PM me.
-
You don't have to run a tune the blows smoke, to not pass the test. Put your programmer back to stock run it around for a few days, then go test.
putting my programmer back to stock is easy, it's spending half a day under my truck in 100 degree heat putting my stock exhaust back on that is a PAIN.
Register in Pahrump and you dont have to smog
Capt
Got an address I can use?
-
Thanks for the info. Not plugging into the OBD is great news, I should pass the opacity test I don't run tunes that smoke at all. Sounds like a legit spot Terry thanks ill give em a shot.
Pete, do they just visually look under the hood or do they look underneath to see if the CAT, NOX and DPF filters are on?
Adam I don't blame you I felt the sale way. PMing you..

Hey guys, i've looked around on the web and can't find exactly what i'm looking for, I guess I could call a shop but it's an excuse to start a new thread and maybe find out where the best place is to go. Here's my Q..
I own a 2012 Cummins that isn't exactly stock and will not pass smog in its current set up. I have to smog for the first time since I purchased it next month and am looking for exactly what they do to smog these things. I know they put em on rollers and do a visual under the hood..but do they hook up to your OBDII port? I'm just trying to figure out how far back to stock I need to go...if not all the way.
Also, good and bad experiences at shops around the vegas area? Thanks in advance guys.
-
how long have you been trying to sell this? I feel like ive seen it on craigslist consistently for like a year. (maybe a little exaggeration, but quite a while none the less)
Anyone go back route Vegas to Dumont

The Baker route and "back" route both have a steep grade. The back way you have a set of switch backs where you have to be careful of on coming traffic coming blind around the corner. With that being said I've never gone to Dumont the Baker way it probably takes 30 mins longer, but I've driven to Cali plenty of times and that loooooong grade would suck. West on Blue Diamond every time for me!
