Default Sunset drive to the top of Carmel Valley

I'm a wedding photographer and had a wedding Tuesday that involved a drive to the top of a ridge for sunset photos with the couple. It was on a 300-acre property and we had full access to every corner of it. Pretty epic place. The couple was all about bombing around in the Disco too. The CDL in these Discos really make off-roading a breeze. Even had to bust out low-range on a couple portions of the trek. Felt great to get off-pavement for a bit.

Anyway, this forum is often used to solve problems, but also thought it'd be nice to share a few snaps of the upsides of Disco ownership to lighten it up a bit.

I spent my honeymoon in the SF and Carmel area some 20+ years ago. You live in a beautiful part of the world. Excellent pics.

I may be planning a trip to San Diego in Sept for a dealer event and may take my Disco instead of flying. Make it a vacation and work trip. If I pass though your town, I may have to give you a call and borrow your awesome torque wrench!

Sea Otters are a big deal here since Monterey its a giant marine sanctuary and there's loads of them. The dealership here did a limited run back in the 90s and early 2000s of these, and when we got the Disco (2018), I went by there to see if they knew where I could find one and they happened to have ONE left in the back and ended up just giving it to me. haha. It's a real gem.
