I work out on chappy on the vineyard, and people run the beach with outbacks fairly often. they do get stuck, mostly on very hot days when the sand is especially soft. the biggest reason they get stuck is they just don't have the clearance and once they start to get a little bit stuck they are easily "framed." I would say that a seasoned beach driver wouldnt have much trouble running the beach in one, provided the tires were aired down and any signs of getting stuck were quickly avoided.
