Some relatives of mine had a small resort up the coast, and we saw MANY a vehicle beat the driver to the claim and slowly take it down. Once the water's high enough to sift the sand out from under your tires, might as well just say 'good bye'...

What we may usually do to get a car's tires unstuck is to place a hard object, like an appropriately sized rock, up against the tires for them to grip onto and step over (rocks should be placed in the direction that the car needs to move, not behind because it might be useless or they could be shot back by the turning wheel and hit somebody/thing) works quite well

You did it right. Build up as much speed as you can before you hit the really soft spot and power your way through. You have enough room in the back (garage) area to mount a winch. Even a small 2500lb one intended for atv's can be really useful - a simple snatch block will double it's pulling capacity.

I love your videos and am thinking of doing a promaster myself. Ido a lot of beach driving and beach camping. I think you need to air down a lot more. Into the single numbers is common to get your tires to bulge a little more. A little more bulge is all you need. We have huge class a s that air down to 10 psi and are able to do it. They are much heavier and less maneuverable. People think the tires will come off if you go down to far. Not the case. Just keep going down till you no longer get stuck. It's a learning experience. Once you see what pressure to run at them it is a lot easier. The van should continue to move forward when you take your foot off the pedal while driving on the sand. If it instantly gets stuck then you need to go lower psi in your tires. The beach I go to has a mandatory 18 psi maximum. You get a ticket if your above that. Most 2 wheel drive vehicles go less than that. I would love to know what the psi was in your tires when you got stuck. I hope you don't give up on beach driving. It is a lot of fun and gets you out to some great boondocking spots. Good luck

Yeah, a front wheel drive vehicle with all the weight up front (ie the engine) is not exactly a dune buggy. 4x4 or at the very least a dually with a diff lock is wise in those situations. Plus, having some traction boards tossed in the back of the vehicle makes sense as well if you're going off terra ferma onto sand and stuff. Also, the tires really should be at least all terrain (ie "medium", not full off-road.)

Wouldn’t more weight in the front on a fwd be ideal?
@cr0ft-2k
@cr0ft-2k 6 жыл бұрын
Depending on surface, perhaps, but on a very soft surface it means it's just more likely to dig down and get stuck, I'd say. Rear wheel drive with one wheel would not be great either, though. A diff lock, that drives both rear wheels, gets you 100% more traction and one of the wheels might grip when the other doesn't, and of course if all four wheels drive then you only need grip on one or two of them at a time. On snow and ice, more weight over the front drive wheels probably helps rather than hinders, though.

That's why RWD is better in the long run. You can always convert them. These aren't small cars. They're heavy in the back too. And you can always throw chains on. I don't have a live in van but drive/own a Ford Transit. The traction is snow is great with passengers. It's only bad when empty..that's when the chains come out. With FWD, weight in the back (furniture, gear etc)is your enemy

Wow that's scary I just built out my ProMaster thinking here in New York front wheel drive goes through anything. Snow ice, muddy roads. but seeing your ProMaster getting stuck that easy in the sand makes me wonder. It's usually the sprinters and rear wheel drive that gets stuck very easy just KZbin it and you'll see. Did Eamon and bec even get stuck a little bit in their Sprinter. Anyways fun video guys thanks
@etiennebimier273
@etiennebimier273 6 жыл бұрын
I don't think Eamon & Bec get stuck with their Sprinter. And on the sand, rear wheel drive are better than front wheel drive, because of the weight repartition. With front whell drive, it's like digging a "hole" in front of you and driving into it. With rear wheel drive, you constantly "push" the sand and as all the weight is allready in the front of the rear wheel, you can drive more easily. On the other hand, on the icy roads, front wheel drive are better. But, in each case, you have to get your tire pressure really low like 10 to 14 Psi, and adopt a smooth driving at every start ;)

I seem to recall that was covered in the early videos of the first van, which was also a Promaster. Just smaller and with fewer amenities, so they traded up in size but stayed with the Promaster. The Promaster does have some advantages, like a perfectly flat floor and front-wheel drive, so there is a lot less van hardware underneath it as well (no drive shaft). It's also the widest internally (just barely), and probably the msot square which makes building the internal easier. (Personally I'd still buy a Ford Transit - or maybe an Iveco Daily 6, in Europe at least.)

You know you could patent that and have a steady source of income? You could design them to lay back if they touch the tire well then open back up ounce the scoops scoop up some sand or dirt so you won't damage the tire well. 😊😉

You need some BF Goodrich KO2 tires on that rig. Hope you took the van to a car wash and had the underside cleaned. Salt water will ruin that beautiful ride.

We use to watch and laugh at people who would do this just to watch their vehicles go under. You were very lucky. Sometimes people won't help you, that is just classless, but you had friends there so I probable would have taken the chance too.

It's a basic air compressor that actually came with my van that has some sealant that you can pump in if you get a flat tire. Wakin up at the beach is awesome!!

Modify snow chains that have metal scoop's with a flat pice against the tire. Used to travel or get unstuck from sand or dirt. Crazy idea's. Saw a video of an Asian dude in a range rover attach a shovel to the hub of his back tire and get unstuck in deep sand dune and leave a rooster tail behind him has he unstuck himself. It was crazy to watch because it worked! 😵😲😯😱😂😂😂

Come on guys, a little rain? I thought brave frontiersfolk like yourselves just bit the bullet and launched into the day. I think you're lucky the quicksand didn't get you guys. Maybe time to get some on board air fitted? And don't let the small matter of incoming tide stress you out. Remember the two rules - 1. Don't sweat the small stuff. -2. It's all small stuff. Stay safe guys and keep up the good work.

We are not vegan, just making vegan food so everyone can be included. it's not bad but we would be eating regularly if these guys weren't hangin out with us.
