    Beautiful build. Really like the organization on the side panels of your cap.

    That was a good time to be in Dubai. Its gotten big now, and the desert is smaller now. What were you doing here if I a may ask.

    thanks, that was designed by my wife, she is an architect and can make things look good, I am an engineer, which means it works, but looks awful.

    funny thing is, people here dont believe that it is a factory colour. But the quality of paint is so weak, it will need some paint correction and scratch repair this summer for the next season. I do miss the paint on those 90s and 80s vehicles.

    Agreed. I would love an exact color matched wrap. Maybe one day.

    My family moved out there when I was little. Went to Jumeirah American School and then back to the States for high school after the American school system ran out. We lived at CBV.

    We went back to visit about 15 years ago and it was so different. Old Dubai was great.

    Lots.
    Welcome from SW Florida! Nice truck! I’ve spent a lot of time in Dubai and visit frequently. Lots of good places for wheeling and overlanding, a correctly set up Tundra is perfect for that.
