I was very lucky too, drove up a nice sloping dune only to find on the other side there was no slope, the wind must have blown it away, the Cruiser took a fall of about 10ft straight on to it's nose. I wasn't wearing my seatbelt and went straight into the windscreen, the screen broke but luckily my head didn'tJulian said:I did have a couple of close calls last trip, driving along a sand river at about 60mph ish only to find a 6' dune across the trail. I was approaching from the steep side and basically the car felt like it had run into a wall, lucky the air bags didn't go off
