Another Mojave Run 3/15-3/17

Yep, Bastrds convoy.

 

Instead of starting up a whole new thread, I thought I'd piggy-back on this one....

Just got back from an AWESOME run on Mojave Road. All I can say is WOW!!! 4 days (Friday - Monday) wasn't nearly enough time to explore.

 

Nice! You didn't run into an inferno Pro while you were there? I think @Jimes was also there this weekend.

 

Threads like this make me hate living in New England

 

Nope... I didn't see any other Tundras on my journey. I did have a TON of folks ask me what kinda truck I had though (I'm de-badged).

 

I saw a white 2nd gen tundra with yellow fog lights, black front bumper and two spares in the back of the truck. Other than that, no other tundras. I was mostly on Mojave west and hit up parts of central. Went to the lava tube and found the rocks in soda lake. Got some sick drone videos. Finally learned how to make it track me.

 

I swear I’ve seen that white tundra on this forum before. I tried to look for it on a bunch of threads, but no luck.

 

Did anyone do the water crossing or did ya bail before Afton Canyon?

 

I stuck my front end in and saw that it was going to go into my interior and backed out of the water. Plus, I was by myself and nobody around in case I got stuck. Sucks too. I was mad that I didn’t have bigger tires. Lol. Time for bigger tires and a more aggressive BMC.

 

Yup. Pretty much. Wife was yelling at me cause I wanted to do it but she’s the voice of reason. She agrees on the bigger tires though.

 

Wish I was a better photographer, but I’m learning. The inspire 2 has way too many features and camera settings. I’m a straight up rookie with camera settings. The drone can definitely do way better shots. As of now I let it auto focus and go with that. But here are two of my better shots from this weekend. Mojave west

 

Awesome trip brings me memories to my mojave trip in jan. What a experience especially coming from NYC

 

This one?

 

Nope. It has a stock bumper but in black and had yellow fogs. One was out though. I waved to them when we drove past them.

 

One of my short drone videos

 

Nice! What's the top speed on that thing?

 

The drone is capable of going 65 mph. But auto tracking is like 30 to 35 mph I believe. When I went over 35 the drone would lose me and I would have to manually catch it up.

 

what drone is that?

 

My wife needs to learn how to fly it and film so we can go faster and get longer videos. The battery dies way faster when tracking

 

DJI inspire 2

 

Longer video

 

Last one. I’m pissed because the best video I had got corrupted while editing and lost all of it.

 

Was it me? I was out there Friday-Monday for my birthday trip. Soooooo much fun!

 

Ha ha. Hell ya it was you. I was going nuts trying to find your truck on the forum. I saw you guys when I was leaving camp. I guess your bumper isn’t all black. Ha ha.

 

So rad, we could have linked up for some trail running! I recall seeing your truck, I also recall drooling quite a bit. Ahaha. Very nice truck!
My rear bumper is bed lined black, the front left chrome as I'll be replacing it with something better soon. Glad my awful yellow fog light (didn't pluralize as 1 kept going out) helped identify me. Squadrons here I come

Incredible drone footage too, really makes me hate city life

 

Any ideas what bumper that is?
