The historic problem with AWD is that the transfer of power from front to rear (due to slippage) can be very constant in the sand. The vehicle will do fine but the transmissions can wear out more quickly. I agree that usually clearance is more of an issue. A friend of mine used to have Durango, but he only ran it in 2-wheel drive on the beach....just took his time and never had a problem.

	Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
