New Rhino is home

[sigepmock]

Here are a few pics of the our new Rhino. Picked it up last weekend.
I got one of the four point belts installed last night before I called back inside for diaper duty :cry:

Also scored a set of slightly used ITP Wheels and tires from one of Evo's customers who's upgrading.

And of course we all know who is really going to be driving this thing most of the time....my lovely wife.

You are gonna love it......I finshed putting the back seat in and all the harnesses the other night. Its ready for Pismo now :D

[hot_diggity_dog]

Congrats on the new ride. :)
HDD :)

[sigepmock]

Thanks for the nudge on the wheels HDD. I'd be kicking myself if I hadn't got them. They look brand new. I'll see about adding the beadlocks after New Years. Also where is SoCal fab located(where is Canyon Country?) and do they build rear cages for "Wanna be ballers" like me? I'm interested in getting a cage built similar to this:

Who's the contact person? Thad? and who's name do I need to throw around? :D
Bill have fun and be safe in Pismo. Let me know how it runs. Got any pics of the rear seat in?
Thanks,
Chris

No pics yet... I will take some tonight and post them tomorrow.
Canyon Country is up by magic mountain. good move on the Wheels tires, I think after Pismo Im definitely going to want to do the wheels and tires.

So Cal will do a removable custom cage starting at about $1,000.00
Depends on what you want.
EVO at Longtravelrhino can do the same.

We're not headed back until Feb. 10 -12th, weekend before Presidents weekend. Might make a guys trip sooner than that.

I want to do a Glamis trip this year, but after reading about Magic 34's "incident" I would be worried about getting stuck too :( Are the places you guys camp pretty easily accesible??

[sigepmock]

Lots more places to camp in Glamis without getting stuck. We'll be camping along Gecko, The main Glamis road, for that weekend in Feb. You're more than welcome to join us.
Also the washes in Glamis are pretty safe for camping too. Lots of safe places.

That would be a great weekend to bring your little ones, we'll have a whole group of kids. Should be four to five families, lot's of little bikes, quads, big bikes, a Rhino, and a long travel buggy.

Count me in too with 2-4 additional trailers coming as well.
Riverbound, I thought you ar part of that older crowd, can't believe you are going to hang with the young guys.
Call me for advice on the truck, I think I just about have it figured out, the non BS way.

How old do you think I am??
I have taken the truck to Ocotillo with no problems. and my uncle has had it to Glamis MANY times. I figure I can jst follow someone out there.

Sweet!! Should be fun. We'll work the details out as we get closer but we're planning on staying on one of the big loops off Gecko, should be plenty of room.
Bill is OLD!!!! but so am I :cool:

[Magic34]

How old do you think I am??
Just kidding. That was from a previous thread you had going. LOL
In regards to following, just keep the truck above 20 MPH in the sand and you are good to go. If it starts to get stuck or bog down, that is when you FLOOR the sh*t out of it.

OK.....I was wondering if that was what you were tlaking about :D
So basically just keep the momentum up. ;)

Also, if we do make it out there and camp together and I get stuck, I need you to do me a favor and bury yours as well. This way the wife won't kick my ass and she'll think we are just in a soft spot. Thanks for you help with this. :crossx:

No problem. Hopefully we can araange to meet up and I can follow you guys out there.
Question: Does yours have the rear dif. lock?? and if so did it get stuck with the dif. locked??

I don't have a switch or anything for that. I'll have to look and see, because right now I have no idea.

[riverbound]

I don't have a switch or anything for that. I'll have to look and see, because right now I have no idea.
I wonder if that would help.... I know we have an air locker that locks the dif. and it has gotten me out of a couple situations where I needed a little bit more traction. That might be a solution to your problem. Then you would have both sets of tires spinning and not just one....probably have limited slip. but by the time it would kick in its too late.

We're headed out two weeks after New Years... possible the weekend right after New Years and two weeks after that... but if you're going on a guys weekend... maybe Sean will want to join you or if ANY girls are going... I'll tag along :D :p We're ready for some riding! Sean picked up my new bike on Tuesday! It's pretty :p I"m ready for New Years!
