RRS sport in the sand

Guys, I'm about to take the RRS HSE onto the beaches of nantucket and some of the duns are really soft. Can you guys reccomend tire pressure? Aside from setting the dial to sand should it be in low range as well???

Important that you disable the DSC outwise the ECU will cut engine power when you really need power!
Don't know about lowering tyres - some of our Aussie/ South African friends might know about that, don't know about Low ratio, doesn't say anything in the owners manual? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

And I assume you are a bloke so we never read them anyway
Was in Newark NJ yesterday Darkalley, pretty awful weather. Just passing through on my way to Panama. Liberty International Airport is so disorganised if you are in transit through the USA.............. I wasn't visiting, just passing through and still had to go through immigration, collect bags and recheck, and nearly miss connection!!! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Join the club Tim.....now exactly what you mean! I'm doing this every two weeks, back and forward from Europe to Liberty International Airport....immigration, collect bags and recheck....immigration, collect and recheck....immigration, collect and recheck....and next Friday is another immigration, collect and recheck...

By the way, todays wheater: just the same

Java - Panama City, Panama is lovely today, not too humid! Is it my imagination or is Liberty the worst US airport for this, Miami, Houston, Atlanta and JFK seem much better organised. I suppose it would be asking too much for them to make it like transitting Schipol Madrid Frankfurt or any other major European airport - they must want to keep tabs on who is travelling in the Americas incase we are doing evil things! Seems crazy when I had 1 hr 40 mins between flights that I spent 2 hours doing formalities and queuing!
Anyway I'm here now so will go and enjoy myself here

Good for you, enjoy....
Well, another Airport you might want to skip when arriving from abroad is Atlanta...collect, security (can take hours) and recheck...
Wondering whats going to happen, now that Brussels has declared that European Airlines don't have to share personal data information of customers with the US prior to arrival...
Might get even worse....

Have fun down there.....
