You know, I've owned too damn many cars and tire sets!
We had a Legacy awd wagon (a 2.0 model built in Japan, not the Outback) with the two speed transfer case. We lived in the desert at the time, and it was terrible on the beach. Nice car, I liked it, but it just didn't have enough power in the soft sand. Low range and lots of revs helped, but I probably should have put wider tires on it for flotation. On the other hand, the Expedition just floated over all of it.
