Thanks guys - that's around Big Sur... So I ended up needing to spend an unexpected night down by Pismo State beach last week. I really wanted to camp on the beach but was frankly unsure about the reality of pulling the trailer in the deep sand. I arrived at about 10pm to a bunch of people warning me about how high the tide was and that folks were really getting bogged down. Spoke to a tow service guy and he said it was a mess down there. I decided to check it out on foot first. Yes there were people getting stuck but they were also driving near or through the water line - sand was thick wet and sticky. I figured I'd take a different line - a much higher line that hugged the sand dunes. Still nervous about it, but really wanted to give it a shot so I aired down all six tires to ~ 15psi stuck in 2nd gear four low (manual transmission) and went for it. Truck pulled the trailer beautifully! Kept my momentum and cruised through some pretty deep stuff! Feel like having the Manual really helped. Anyway I was so pumped - so pumped that beach towing wasn't out of the question. Next morning did the same thing with no problems. Used the arb pump to air up and was outta there. Awesome little adventure. Here are the only pics I took...
