We close on our house in Carova tomorrow. I haven’t taken my 110 up the beach yet. Our trips up the beach were in wranglers and we never aired down. Hoping to be able to get up and down the beach in the 110 the same. MTF

Well as you know the area a sedan can make it most of the way at low tide right.

But, especially in season, with traffic funneled up to the dune line for ~3 miles (between what mile markers 14 & 17) it gets really rutted.

And if there's any storm surge and you can't make it around Laughing Gull at the ocean you have to go behind and that dune crossing gets a lot of people.

Can you NOT air down? Sure we've done it and gotten away with it at times. But it is clearly the #1 reason why people get stuck there.

Like I say, we compromise most of the time and just don't air down as low as we're told.


More importantly CONGRATS and have fun! Hope to see ya on the sand.
