Curious to know if anyone has tried taking thier 4WD RX on the beach with moderately deep sand?

Moderately deep sand, or even DEEP sand, isn't the actual problem.

The problem only arises if you lead-foot it a bit too much.

If the sand is wet than it is "compacted" and a kids tricycle would do fine.

You're really only susceptable to problems if the sand is dry and loose and you don't know how to drive gently over, on top of, it.

So, yes, my AWD RX300 has spent time on all kinds of beach sand as has my RWD 78 911, both with no problems whatsoever.

I wouldn't, and if you read the regulations for whatever beach your thinking about driving on my guess is the RX won't meet the requirements. Sand is a locking transfer case sort of thing. Better suited to the Explorers and 4Runners of the world.
