Where A Honda CRV AWD Goes to Die... 4x4 Beach at Fort Fisher

[@thomaswalters5519]

I remember them days, I had a nice 1984 Nissan 4x4, 3" lift kit with 34" tires. Boy I loved that truck, 5 speed. Never did get stuck. I was always the one pulling the other guy out, and I would be at Fort Fisher just about every weekend. Miss them days.

You could have had a workout this day!

Just make the tire pressure around 8 psi and it all be good

Expert comment.

[@billzee1340]

had both a 2013 patriot 4xx "awd really" stick shift and a 2017 patriot 4x4 with 6 spd auto on that beach. Zero issues and they are really AWD. i did air down but never came close to getting stuck. Had my fiance's 2018 honda crv awd on same exact beach and zero issues. Aired down again. I've had many true 4x4's on that beach and always air down and not get stuck. I see tons of "real 4x4" trucks stuck all the time. I think it's more about enough clearance- crv has 8.2"- air pressure, and the driver in the box...

Thanks for that update

Don't know about the CRV, but got a AWD rav 4 use it on dairy farm every day never been bogged once

Probably the deep sand.

I had a 1st gen with 30" wrangler duratracs, did great offroad, but still awd at the end of the day. Sand trap is death.

@@dr2377awd isnt the issue, its tires and clearance.

[@dr2377]

@@carlquitcheefin it's definitely the awd system. You can only approach obstacles at one angle. Impossible to turn the other way lol

[@eamonquinn70]

Do any of the struggling vehicles bother to reduce their tyre pressures?

[@KayakhacksFishing]

Eventually, they try that. The big mistake is they try to go through the center where the loose sand is really deep

You sound like Hank from King of The Hill 😂😂

Out-of-state visitors/tourists wanting the beach experience?
