Hi Folks,

I'm organizing a trip through Death Valley on April 2nd, 3rd and 4th. It's a one-way snaking route that will take us through some of the best spots in Death Valley. Expect fireroads, sand, rocky sections and steep descents. While most of the trails will be fun and fairly easy, some will be nail bitters and pose some minor danger. If you're calm, cool and listen to the guides you will be fine. No running boards. LT rated tires recommended.

Additional details available at http://www.deckowski.com/next%20trip.htm

I'll be racing in Pahrump on the 3rd, but I could meet you Saturday. Do you where you might be then?

I've seen some on dpreview.com's forums. There are meadows of wildflowers there because of all the rain! Looks awesome...

  3. Can 'Universal Catalytic' be installed on Front Right position ? Mine was STOLEN roadside 3 days ago...

    W163 M-Class
    Dear BW friends: Just wondering if any of you have had success on an ML / w163 of replacing a Front Cat (right) with a universal model. I see them commonly available. I'm trying to do this affordably. It's a 2002 ML500 NON-California model. When my ML was stranded roadside with the Oil...

  5. Modest coolant seep on radiator side tank: can it go catastrophic or not ?

    W163 M-Class
    Hi Guys: I'm hoping to pull any of you who've had an ML radiator fail where the side tank (plastic) to (aluminum) core seam seal is ? I've got a modest leak that I believe is there. All hoses are tight and a drip forms at very bottom of Drivers side radiator edge. If I just relieve pressure...
