Driving on sand dunes?
Also I am told a very good truck wash, especially underneath, will be in order when I'm done. Any spots that need special attention that might not be obvious? I plan to take it to a car wash and put it on my ramps to spray underneath.
Terrible advice, I have run Pismo, one of the largest dunes and every one airs down. I run 18 pounds, with my 265's, when on sand, keep the CDL locked and keep you momentum up and try not to clear more then 3 feet of air or you'll be in for a heel of a landing.
Made it home safely with no major trail damage. I'll update with pictures and videos this evening. I've never seen full-sized vehicles drive on dunes like that. It was a blast, and I'm exhausted now.
Oh, for anyone looking to drive on similar terrain, airing down is definitely necessary. Most guys were running between 5 and 10 PSI, I started at 18 and eventually had to go clear down to 12.
PS, here's the trip report if you want to see the video:
