Maverick Tremor at Oceano Dunes SVRA

[JasonDroninAround]

A couple weekends ago, I went out to Oceano Dunes for a two night camping trip. I decided to remake a video I did out there almost exactly one year ago, when the truck was just a couple weeks old. Then, I did not have a very good camera mount and I was just recording with my cell phone microphone. This one is still recorded with my cell phone. I just have a real action camera mount on the windshield. Also, the audio is better because I'm using my Zoom H1 as a usb microphone, also mounted to the windshield.

There a few quick clips in the beginning, followed by a sunset time lapse I took on the second night. Then, back to the driving video in its entirety, no edits. I have been asked before about how I get that turbo noise. I don't do anything. It just happens when I let off the throttle while under a full load. My engine is completely stock. I also have my roof top tent in my bed and all of my camping stuff in the truck. I'm slightly heavier than a normal Maverick. I aired down to about 16 PSI but by the time everything started warming up, all the TPMs settled on about 19-20 PSI

Oceano is so cool. Is that hot dog place still there?

Not sure. I spent the entire time on the beach. My brothers were there and they are really good cooks. There was no reason to leave the beach lol. Though I have been known to drive the 3 hours out there, several times, just to get some clam chowder lol

Fun video .
I'm surprised by the lack of other people riding the dunes . Summertime is packed to capacity .

We meet some friends at Dumont Dunes every several years . They have the toys , we mooch rides .
That place is insane !
If you're a dune rider you have to go there at least once .
And detour through Death Valley for the sights ....

I've driven by Dumont dunes a few times. I have camped in this truck at Lone Pine, Death Valley, and California City. Until recently, I have been scared to try super soft dunes. That was until I discovered airing down In our local dry river bottoms. This little truck is practically unstoppable once you air it down Dumont dunes is on the list next time I go out toward the Mojave

Awesomely Spectacular video Jason ! Did you happen to take a picture of Tremor afterwards, to show the accumulated dirt?

This was all sand dunes on this trip. There was no dirt or mud to accumulate. Not on the outside of the truck anyway. There was plenty of sand in the floor mats though lol
