So I spent a week preparing my Yukon for the sand, they let you drive just about anywhere (for a $125 fee). Planks, hi lift jack, hydraulic jack, tow straps, shovels, and the only thing I used was a 3/4 in 12 in square plywood jack support. Driving down a trail by a 10 million dollar mansion under construction I pick up a 1" sheet rock screw in my front passenger side tire! I could have done that in my own driveway. So I changed a tire on the beach! I aired down to 20 lbs, 15 in the really soft stuff. I did get a Viair 300 portable compressor which worked great for airing back up. Didn't see one Power Wagon, but I'm sure there is one there. I took the tire and screw to my cousin's shop and he plugged it. On topic, they had a '49 Dodge pickup that a customer brought in, wouldn't start, but had electricity. He knew I messed with old dodges so he called me back to shop and I pointed out the broken dist wire under the plate. Started right up, the mechanics loved that and then went back to the Acura mdx and computer. I never saw so many landrovers as that island, next time I'm bringing my M37!
