Getting Cold Feet About Sand!

[Vandakeg]

So, as most of you Michiganders probably know, Silver Lake is opening this Saturday (04/01).

I have been planning on taking the H3 up there ever since I bought it, but it seems everyone I talk to tells me it's a bad idea. All I hear are horror stories of guys who ran their trucks in the sand, and they swear that's what caused all their problems. Granted, none of their vehicles have been Hummers... still I'm having second thoughts.

What are your thoughts on running in sand? Any tips or tricks? Should I run in 4-HI lock? How fast can I go? I've got the Adventure Package, and I'm planning on airing the tires down to about 15 psi.. does that sound right?

Thanks for any help you can offer!
