Hey Folks,
Gonna take my LR4 to the beach soon and they let you drive on the beach (Corolla, NC). The beach is probably 80-100 yards at low tide from water to dunes. Towards the water it's packed sand but it can get very soft and deep (12 inch+ tire grooves) towards the dunes. You can also go over the dunes as there are wild horses (and some dirt roads).
When I asked at the dealer if I needed to let air out of the tires with the LR4 to drive on the beach, they said no. But a quick search on Google shows that most 4x4 folks recommend it.
Anyways, just curious if anybody has had any LR4 experience/tips for driving on beach sand (and if any special equipment required if I get stuck).
Thanks!
