It's been done just look at YouTube. I traded my GQ Patrol for a "softroader" after doing a recovery on an old rav 4 on the beach in soft sand. Easier to drive, floats better on sand and mud, lower fuel bills and cheaper insurance. If the track is so cut up that you need a big boy to get through, you should probably turn around and find another route anyway rather than furthering it's destruction. But if your vehicleForester is properly prepared and you manage to keep it's weight down, go for it. One last thing, the power to weight ratio is far better than a traditional 4wd. This makes steep hill climbs an absolute dream.
