Road Trip to White Sands in New Mexico

Hey guys... thinking of taking my F80 on a road trip- wanted to stop at White Sands and check out the place.

Do you think there is any chance of damage from the sands to the car? Im going to be sticking to the dunes drive road. I can't imagine there would be, but wanted to check with anyone who's been there.

My concern is if the sand gets into the bearings or other parts to increase wear/tear, or if its gonna sandblast my paintwork, haha!

Thanks for any input!

You should be good as long as you avoid and wind storms. If you go hiking check this out
