We're at the North Carolina outer banks for a few days and brought my partner's Outer Banks down. Only fitting, right?
It was getting 32+ indicated MPG on the trip. Took it on the north OBX beach yesterday and that knocked it back to under 30, but still very impressed.
I'm quite experienced driving on these beaches. Aired the stock Michelins down to about 20 PSI, put her in sand mode and let her rip. The sand here is really variable. Some areas near the water are like pavement and there are places with deep, soft sand. She handled it all with no issues and never even tried to get stuck. We went through some windy deep sand trails at low speed with no problems at all.
Her previous vehicle was a Jeep Compass Trailhawk with OEM Falken Wildpeaks and the Bronco Sport was just as capable in the sand. Very fun!
