    He removed the top of his Jeep for a trail run in dry conditions. And, he was in the middle the pack.

    This.

    Hope this shows up before the camping trip so I can check it out and test drive it before any paperwork is done.

    In hindsight, I wish I would have warned him. I can't even leave the rear window down when I'm alone, let alone following someone in that dust.

    Compressed air or a leaf blower would have been ideal for clean up. Hopefully he's not totally put off by the experience.

    I definitely made that mistake once or twice with having windows down in dusty conditions

    I wasn't there so I don't know, but common sense would lead to knowing that multiple vehicles offroad create lots of dust, therefore the open top was poor thinking on his part.
    I agree with hoping that didn't sour his interest in offroading, just a learning experience that we all have getting to know our vehicles.

    He’ll do more, just not in a dust storm!

    btw, here’s what my wife thinks we are doing at the pipeline.
