haha wow u gotta take it a lil slower in the sand. couldnt u shovel ur self out?

no I was sitting on te frame and axles

haha wow that sucks well atleast u got out

definitly should have aired down, but i dont think that bfg a/t's are good for sand anyway. where is that at

ive only ben stuck in the sand once and that was because the rut i was in split and went in two different directions but i wasnt stuck that bad. i was just up to the bottom of the rim. how did you burry it like that?

for sand driving you should always have a shovel, air compressor, and dont drive too slow as you sink. you can even run down to 10psi in bad conditions. always drive in a high gear and not a low gear.

well I just launch our boat and was playing around at the dock and said "hey look some sand I can go thru that" but went thru several times but was stupid and stoped in it

it is in Fort Pierce Florida by the inlet

allterrains are better than mud tires or more aggresive tires in sand as you want to try and float on sand and not dig in....if ya air down you can get through most things...

Wow it looks like you started to get stuck and then proceeded to lay on the gas. I live on the beach and have helped pull out many tourists in their honda and mazda suvs, but you take the award for that one. How long did it take you to get out?

I know I was stupid I didn't realize how loose the sand was then putit four low and just dug in after 2 seconds on the gas the worst part was i drove over the sand several times in 2wd but I want to show off and stop

At least you had someone to help tow you out. Once my tranny problem is sorted a group of us are going to play on the sand dunes on a remote beach. We don't go there unless there is at least 4 trucks. Last time I went out the 4x4 would not kick in & had to be towed out. I was laying on the chassis with rear wheels spinning merrily. Turned out to be a perished vacuum line. I still only have road tyres but if my Grand Cherokee did it with road tyres then so should my Blazer. I hope to get a spare set of wheels with A/T tyres for offroad use.

Another tip most of you probably know but i'll mention anyway if you start to bury in 2 wheel drive and you stop to put it in 4 wheel drive you always want to try reverse first. Especially in sugar sand like that or the front will just bury out of sight.

You were in Fort Peirce? i was there for Spring Break. Awesome place.

nice truck dude, where did you find that mossy oak window tint? check out my blazer on cardomain.

nice i dont live to far from there. i live in coral springs. its about 1 1/2 hours away

GMTF FTW.
 
Yup you're stuck ;)

The best tires for sand are slicks, you dont want tread dragging you into the sand you want to float.

I live pretty close to Daytona Beach...That beach sand is really fine sometimes...Although I haven't been stuck out there, I have helped ppl get out. I know everyone knows this, but the wider the better. The best I ever had was a set of pretty much bald a/t's on my full size p/u. They would spin alot but they wouldn't dig down..Alot of fun doing donuts too! 2 wheel drive got me pretty much anywhere in the sand.

yea saw your blazer on cardomain last week gave you five stars,got the mossy oak at wallamrt $20 a window but it only last a couple of months before it pealed off it is not worth it, where did you get the mossy oak for you interrior?

I ordered the fabric off of ebay and me and a friend used heardliner adheasive from autozone to glue it up there and then stapled the edges. it took one weekend to take the liner out and glue the fabric, and another weekend to re-install it. ive had it for a few months now and its holding up perfectly. 

ha, nice man. Happens to the best of us :) if ya don't get stuck, your not havin enough fun ;)

B FG All Terrains win BAJA races, yes in the sand.
 
ONce you started spining you should have air down, and thrown your floor mates under the tires.
 
Sand, you cannt scoop it out with your hands?
 
Boat didnt have a paddle?
