I usually just drop the clutch and let the tires spin till I get traction. No need to destroy the clutch. Auto's are nice though since you can get going slowly without much wear on the truck.

The beach I am on has no traction... It is like tiny ball bearings, and is bottomless! If you pop your clutch and spin your tires, you will only move DOWN...

If horsepower and lockers were the answer to beach driving, then poor Art with his 454 V-8 and front/ rear lockers wouldn't be in this situation!:

Once we got Art to let more air out... he was able to motor down the 2 miles to our camp... no problemo!

Yeah I definitely sink in 2wd but in 4x4 she moves forward. I haven't taken my truck down to the lake yet but that sand is really bad. If you stop in it with 2wd your done.
