Default Border Patrol Buggy

Caught this on dangerous drives last night. Looks like a really fun ride.

if you ever get a chance to go to the dunes out here in the west, it will blow your mind. twin turbo'd LS's are everywhere, hell- the camp trailers have more than 24" of travel. i went for the first time 2 years ago and it was AWESOME!! too damn hot in the summer but thanksgiving, christmas and new years are worth the trip.

The amount of money at the dunes is ridiculous. way above my meager means. the comment about the trailer was just to make a point. but with all of the lifted trucks, alot of the camp trailers have the axles flipped or below the springs or both giving them kind of a "pre-runner" look. it is a spectacle for sure and if you're have the chance, check it out. i do have to admit that the economy has played a role in the last few years and the dunes on the AZ/Cali border only see about half of the buggies in the past, but it's still around 2k people!
