Many people ask if you need a 4-wheel drive vehicle to drive on the beach in Corolla, NC. Here's the answer as to why you need a 4x4. www.twiddy.com/outer-banks-4x4-driving.aspx
i have a jeep wragler 4x4 with 37s and i had a buddy with a heavier 4dr wrangler that is 2wd stock tires no lift kit, he took it to the beach once and got stuck right away. when i took him I LWRD THE TIRE PRESURE TO 10PSI AND HAD HIM PUSH THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF. HE WAS GOLDEN we went through soft sand and packed down sand. if you air down your tire there will be more surface area contacting the ground causing u 2 float over the sand instead of digging urself in.
@slapoutz Big difference between driving on hills and gravel than driving on a soft sand beach with ruts. Wouldn't recommend taking your Civic on our beaches, but if you get that truck with 4wd you'll have a blast!
@DamnGood30 i drive a fwd civic and ive never gotten stuck either. sand, 10 inch deep gravel on hills, mud, a foot of water. not that hard if you know how to do it. only problem i ever have is scraping on big hills. hope to have a truck soon though
well front wheel drive awd or rwd dose not matter well it dose some what having wider tries helps the vehicle stay on top of the sand better you don't want skinny tires on sand that makes no sens whats so ever skinny for snow and some mud and fat for sand and most other mud
