JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

I was there in 2003 right before the war, then we transferred over to Iraq. But I remember those storms very clearly. I used to try to take pictures because I knew no one would belive me but they never really caught the effect of it like your pictures do.

Guess I didnt really answer your first question. I was in camp Arifjan (not sure the correct spelling). Then we moved over to a staging area closer to the border, and we were there for about a month. I cant remember the name of it.

Yeah its crazy plus in additio too that in the sand there is a mini sort of tornado called "aafoor", its offcourse nothing compared to the real ones but it shakes your car and in my case it shool my jeep so bad i was really afraid i would have some major damage. 3 people died in a 15min-20min storm. and many many injured

Yeah the problem is when your driving about 120km/hr and it hits you face on, that happened to my fathers old mercedes, and in this 30secs he lost his front lights, windsheild and some of the paint, because it was literly beach sand or desert blowind very fast at you. I would hate myself if that happened to my jeep.
