Mornin' PSAR
Just think what a convoy of us PSAR peeps would look like rolling to the dunes.
Way to go Wingnut! That's a nice rig. The triple slide Raptor is the first one that caught our eye.

Wingy,
Looks like "most" of the sites that are around the outer part of the loop may be pretty easy to get into.
They are almost all angle, which will make for easier backing.
The sites on the inside of the loop are pretty straight and may take some work to get into.
Looking at the depth of sites, most are plenty deep enough, just a matter of getting backed in.
The tricky part will be the learning curve on backing this behemoth, along with turning.
Once you do it a few times, you will start to get the hang of it, but it will take some getting use to.
Definately have a spotter when backing, preferably with a radio.
You'll have fun, and good luck

May I suggest a couple hours in an open parking lot with milk jugs or such for targets? Some time behind the wheel teaches not just the driver but the spotter as well how a rig will swing and when to turn which way. "Discussions" are a definite part of the learning curve.
Congrats you guys on the new toys, it's fun to have them and they sure make travel nice.
