    On the sugary beach sand we have here in NJ I've aired down as low as 8psi on a fullsize Bronco with stock size tires. Flotation is key on sand and allowing the tires to mold to the terrain makes all the difference in the world.

    In my Tacoma I air down to 25psi and have no issues. Lighter truck, better tires, more driving skill, etc.

    Good luck and have fun out in the dunes!!
