Howdy Chris,
Since I have a Mog I look at the big trucks and don't see much. One
thing about the big trucks- You won't see all them spoilers on them <G>

Howdy Chris,
You're right about the central inflation system. I know of one company
in Europe that makes them as after market items for Mogs. I would bet
you could find a company that could make them for Jeeps.

Wasn't this due to that water crossing out in the middle of the
desert? Sucking large amounts of water will kill any engine.

I'm impressed with the Yami bike with the hydralic assist front end.
I expect we'll see this in a consumer version in the not too distant
future.

Good to see an American team running in the car class again. I do
question using a 2wd Baja truck though instead of a 4x4 version.
Hopefully we'll see more US participation in the future. (And yes, I
did notice an American bike team too.)

I've missed the last few days due to being out of town.

Dakar is cool.
