I may be naive, but a black car in that part of the world could get pretty hot. Will you have covered parking?

So, how does this work? They load it on a boat and you see it in a few months? Always been curious about it because most people will either sell or leave their vehicle here if relocating overseas.

Freaks me out a bit thinking about the Boat that just caught on fire and sank with a bunch ofcars from VW/ Audi/Lamborghini plus a bunch of other collector cars, supposedly.

Good luck. Stay safe.

Yeah, gets put into a container and boat. I left an apple AirTag in it to “monitor” the progress. It should take a couple of months to get there. If anything were to happen to it, it’s covered by my employer.

I guess we will find out, lol. It does get super hot there, it’s already 90 degrees.

You could always have a local paint the roof white.

Super hot doesn’t even begin to describe it. During my short two day stays waiting to catch a flight into another country it was like 90 at night. That being said it felt like 40 at night do to the temp swings.

We get to those temps in Las Vegas too. And it is a degree or two hotter in Phoenix.

I spent a lot of time in Vegas while I was stationed at FT Irwin. While I thought I had already felt the heat that comes out of the devil’s butt while farting, Kuwait heat was different. I would say it was the devil’s fart after some of that hot sauce you sign a waiver for.

I read alcohol is pretty much illegal everywhere in Kuwait except private clubs and your dwelling. Getting it to your dwelling sounded sketchy. Sex is illegal outside of marriage. Sounds like a "no fun zone" to me.

I had a friend that worked in Jedda for TWA decades ago. He flew to the UK every weekend. He said the extended royals did too. The women would board the planes in burkas and have their cocktail dresses and high heels underneath.

Kuwait is different the Saudi Arabia, a lot more tolerant.

Yeah, it’s a dry country and very conservative. I am single too but in the bright side, being a fed has its perk ? we can buy liquor, pork, etc. At the military commissaries and such. Apparently we become very popular and make a lot of friends due to these perks.

Enjoy, spent sometime over there and had lots of fun as a contractor. On the highways watch out for the speed traps cameras. If they get you, you gotta pay. Been there done that.

We have a month a month and a half in southern AZ where it stays mid 90's at night and goes over 110 daily
No humidity makes it bearable as long as you stay hydrated . 115 in AZ is better than 90 in TN for example

They need any truck drivers? With hazmat tanker experience? Lol.

A company I occasionally contract with just paid one $500 for a couple hours worth of work… Driving a F350 and pulling 600 gallons of Jet-A.

Almost none of that would be a dealbreaker for me… But no ”professional“ companionship, well I too would be taking some regularly scheduled weekend trips…
