As we knew that killing time here was more difficult than driving, we thought of driving instead and boy o boy, did we nail it! With 4 Pop Outs, couple of digging and sinking, it was morning before we could know it...

Expedition had some issues with its Diff-Lock. Had to leave her behind. But she was ready to join us back for the morning drive...

Everyone was giving his advises for the Expedition. Someone said Master Reset it, someone said press and hold the volume up key, the power button and menu button together, someone said "battery nikaal k dobara dalo"

What do we have here...? The first two Pop Outs! Yes two with less than a minute's difference. The honor of having the first Pop Out goes to Basit followed by Khalid Bhai, a very senior member of the 4x4 Club and what a relief it was for Basit.

Fixing a Pop Out is a drill in itself...

And Pop Out No. 3

As per the rule, the first guy to have a Pop Out takes the responsibility of proving breakfast to the group. This Pop Out should promise Dinner!
