O2 sensor code might very well be from built-up on the sensor. I had that with my 2018 Trailblazer and the workshop simply cleaned the sensor. No problems for over 20,000km. The dealer in the states would simply replace the sensor.)

I have those and like them the sand in the UAE.

I hope they outperform the G015 in sand. I love that tire (95% Dubai roads, 5% desert)

We ended up with about 5 inches of water in the front yard/car port and the water level stayed below the brake discs and the undercarriage. Our house did fine as It's about 6 feet up from the street level. Not everyone was this lucky, though and I've a friend who lost a car in his driveway. I...

Your luck: we got some rain in Dubai so I'll move on to another topic. 🌧️. https://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/photos-of-mid-sized-vehicles-post-here.53001/page-94

Since they don't want me to troll the "What do you use for a truck gun?" thread with the answer "None, I live in a muslim country and it's safe here!", Let's post a video of the rain in Sharjah/Dubai.

No income tax in the UAE so it's impossible to cheat on your UAE taxes. I still deal with the IRS, though. They tax worldwide.

Cutting off wrists doesn't happen, that was a century ago. The biggest deterrent in the UAE is that 85% of the population is on a work-visa and you will be deported after whatever punishment the judge decides. For most people, that job feeds 3+ families at home. On an experiential level, though...

Unfortunately, that's not possible here unless you're a sheikh.

Living in the United Arab Emirates, a muslim country, there is no need for truck guns. It's safe out here. The worst that can happen is Amazon leaving a package in front of your gate in the summer and the content melts when you're not home in time.

or $35,937 per inch of headroom in the bunk! That one sold quick, though.

Three days later, the window switches are working again. I think the car needs to keep drying out for a few more days.

Urban off-roading with Zebra71. Dubai got 2 inches of rain in 24 hours. Almost lost my numberplate twice and ended up with 1+ inch of water inside the cabin (fording about 25-30 inches of water). The only things that are not working yet, a day later are the power window switches on the front...

The one thing that malfunctions in Zebra71, my 2018 Trailblazer (a 2018 Colorado with a trunk) is the touch screen. Luckily I an control everything with knobs and buttons, including Apple CarPlay.

A lot of Jump packs are small enough (under 100Wh) to count for carry-on. So I would definitely check with TSA on that one.
