Smith Point Beach Long Island NY. First time taking our new Lightening Flash ER on the beach. Sold our Bronco Sasquatch for this bad boy.

it is like driving a tank not only cause of the weight but it won’t get stuck. Don’t even feel a wheel slip etc.

I’ve had them all. F150 Raptor’s, Bronco Raptor as well as land cruisers other F150’s, Tesla S plaid, Tesla X LR. This Lightening is truly amazing, does it all and costs $6.00 to fill it up at our home.

I’m always afraid that it’s too heavy to drive on the beach. Did you let air out of your tires?

Yes I’ve always aired down no matter what.

Aired this down to 18 on each wheel. The stock Goodyear wrangler HT’s did really well.

Funny thing is yesterday we took the lightning on Sore Thumb beach at Robert Moses’s state park and didn’t air down because the line to air up was crazy and the truck did amazing, when I hit some heavy sand it would sink in a bit but I never felt like I was loosing traction.

The locking rear with the instant torque I think makes this truck pretty hard to get stuck, also it’s pretty much a life size Traxxis brushless remote control truck lol.

Knowing the name of the vehicle you bought isn't grammar, it's spelling... :crackup:

That’s awesome, I can’t wait to try this RND. I’ve got a little compressor I was going to bring along to air up. One of the perks of having Pro Power on board… poor man’s Rivian. Always liked that feature on those.

yeah I mean listen we can have any air compressor we want on this thing with pro power! It’s more of a perk than anything else. And we never have to worry about replacing the compressor if it was an on board unit.
