We were visiting Death Valley on a summer vacation with our kids and parked the rental 4WD SUV between a couple of the Borax mining mounds for a few minutes to take pics.

The car thermometer read 130 F. We got the f#k outta there.




PS... Don't walk out into the Badwater basin off the beaten path. The salt deposits are sharp as hell if you fall.

Why is this age restricted KR?
What the heck is it? I called my mom to give parental authorization but she's not answering.

Even an icy drink or an iced coffee could bring your body temp down & keep you cool…..

@DiggityDaggityDo for $500 would you let @BobbyFK sweat dripping from his sack drip in your palm for 2 minutes straight?

I think I speak for many people that we as a community of your peers would love to see some pics or a short video, thanks!

Just sweat into your hand, and you can wash it right after?!?!

Hell! I’ll do that for $400…..

Don’t blame you at all - it’s one of those things you tell people you were at - but seeing it is nothing special - it’s freaking DESERT - looks just like the 100 miles of desert you drove through to get there - just slightly hotter.

Reminds me of the trip my parents took us on years ago - the old man always wanted to see the west - so flew to Phoenix and drove around for 2 weeks in a rental. This was pre cell phone days of course.

Drove out to Death Valley one day and came back into Vegas the next. Dad goes down the the car and discovers we had a flat. Pops the trunk to out the spare on - no freaking spare !! Just then occurs to him exactly how fucked we would have been of that had happened in the desert. Quickly developed a habit of checking every rental I take out to this day for a spare as well as taking a quick look under the hood. Last thing you want to be is stranded somewhere in a rental - cell service or not.

Not exactly, do you need me to elaborate ?
