Default Pilot on Cape Hatteras Beach

We took our Pilot on the beach at Cape Hatteras.

It performed great. I didn't need to use the VTM-4.
My Brother's Trailblazer got stuck in the deep sand when he tried to enter the beach, but was eventually pulled out by a local.
Deflating your tires to around 22 psi should allow you to get the proper traction in the sand.

Default Cape Hatteras Beach

Our whole family rented two homes on Buxton for a week and decided to have a camp fire on the beach. The kids toasted marshmallows, took in the sunset, chased sand crabs at night with flashlights and enjoyed the view of the Hatteras Lighthouse.
oops, sorry no pixs of that.

Wow, you are getting awesome gas mileage on yours. On just over 10,000 miles, I'm averaging about 17.1 mpg (combination of city and highway). Even on highways, the best I have been able to get is 20.2 mpg.

I'm surprised that I got 26 mpg on two parts of my June trip. It's probably because I filled my tank after a low mileage trip on those. I was part of a caravan made up of 2 Chevy Trailblazers and a Chevy 1500 so we had to stop often. I probably could've done better with the August trip if it weren't for the air conditioning usage.

That's amazing! I wonder why there's so much disparity on mpg between Pilots. I know that I don't have a lead foot and yet I can't seem to get better than 20.
