I'm thinking about buying a BX 1880 to grade my sloped driveway and road. Both are composed solely of sand. Will the BX1880 have enough traction to perform well?

How sloped?

I have a friend who's driveway is so sloped that I have had to put my truck in 4WD to get up it sometimes.

But his neighbors only rises about 2 feet over the entire 200' length.

Big difference.

Sand travel requires speed to stay on the surface and not sink or flotation tires. Better still, spread Portland cement on top....
