Agree with others posting above. Driving experience matters more than the vehicle. The X5 does fine, with DSC off, in sand. 17" tires are best, the larger/wider tires aren't as good. 20psi is a good target. Carry a pump to reinflate them when you are back on the hardpack. Also carry a cell phone, and make sure you have a towing eye in your toolkit (with the jack).
