I told my Dad for Xmas this year we're going to Glamis (we've never done any "duning", but we're gear heads and I thought it would be cool…Did I mention we live in Minnesota?). Instead of renting quads and a camper trailer we found a very nice sand car for sale in Havasu. Long story short we purchased the sand car, my Dad drove 2000 miles with a camper and trailer (made a quick stop in Vegas for SEMA), picked up the sand car and I flew out to phoenix then drove a rental to meet him in the desert.

GLAMIS ROCKS!

Here are pics of the rail we picked up:
