Driving on the beach question
We are planning our yearly voyage to Frisco, North Carolina ( outer banks southern shores). We have been going there for the last 15 years or so. You are allowed to drive on the beach there, and I have always wanted to do this. We would love to drive up the beach past Duck and Corrolla, and spend a night camping out in the dunes.
I have a 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I sort of had given to me, and I am thinking of taking it this year. The jeep is my new beater, and would be perfect for a beach vacation . We can beat the snot out of it, get sand all through it , haul sruf boards, spill drinks in it etc...
Will a grand cherokee on stock wheels, and highway type tires go pretty good in the deep sand???. I know it goes like hell in the woods the way it is. I see all of the fisherman down there have huge tires and wheels. I am not planning on doing any serious 4 wheelin', just wouldn't mind cruising up the beach 5-10 miles or so, and finding a nice spot to camp for the night.
I'm hoping I can just air down the tires and go. Just dont want to be that stupid tourist paying for a $400.00 tow to get my dumb yankee arse pulled of the sand.
