Airing Down Class A for Sand
Hi All, Heading out to Glamis for the first time in 10 years and for Halloween weekend... and first time in a class A (formally a 4x4 with Toybox). I've never stayed in the washes before, always...

The biggest problem with airing down is that it lowers your chassis clearance. Once you chassis touches the sand/ground it is all over. You will no longer have enough weight on your tires to provide any traction.
X2! How did the "wash" form. My 50 plus years of desert ratting has seen a few flash floods. It's true that Halloween is not flash flood season in California deserts, but hey, anything is possible. Now combine being stuck up to the axles in sand and 20 seconds advance notice of an eminent flash flood. At least it's all over real quick.
