Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
One of these days I will see a dune in person, but not from
behind the wheel, I have no fear and that can be an issue. Nice pictures

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
Very cool area, some day we need to take a family trip over that way.
Question for ya, what's the best tire set up excluding sand tires for running around in the dunes? Great pics, thanks for posting. |

It's all about air pressure & POWER... If you don't have power, than you need momentum. Momentum can get to be a rough ride with leaf spring suspension. It would be awesome if you did make a family trip, we'll see if we can get Chevyman63 to finish his ride!! Come on Tim, time to shift into second gear!!! J/k |

Re: Michigan Sand Dunes (pics)
 Cool!So do they require the dune flags to be on the front? Out her at Pismo everyone hasum on the back.  I can see were the front would be visable first as you climb a dune so maybe that is the thinking... Looks like fun! Burt

You're right...I was just telling the wife today that I'm going to get a little less fussy about stuff and try and get it together so I can drive it. Now that you're off work you can help! J/K. Great pics. Brings back memories.
