    Wow...thanx for the heads-up We're travelling from Saudi Arabia [Eastern Province] to Las Vegas tonight. Taking the GX out of storage, installing roof rack, awning, side steps in the next week, then hitting some trails till mid August. Perhaps a trip to the beach in CA is a good option:confounded:
