If you didn't start with "sand" it would be easy....
almost any AT cover the other stuff.
SAND... well, what kind of sand? wet.dry.flat.hills.drifts?
can your truck spin the tires?
how heavy are you?
sand can be vicious. lower tire pressure helps with any tire...
some tires just dont like lower air pressure.
do you have the ability to air-up and air-down?
BFG at's cover the rest ok. They do hydroplane on lighter vehicles.(contact pressure).
they also are ok to air down as low as 7-9psi
(if driven respectively/responsibly)
your request is kinda like askin for a 350hp engine with "good" gas mileage...what's good?
I run pro-comp mt's(33'')
"good" all around. not "excellent"
don't air down well(as any steel belted).
weak sidewalls(I hear, no problems w/mine)
I had BFG 31''at's and will never buy them again.
they push and load up in slush.
but thats just my experience.

I know that out here in the desert, most people run BFG's. Usually, you see BFG MT's, but the AT's aren't that uncommon. Also, alot of people run the Goodyear MTR's. I know a damn good sand tire would probably be the BFG Baja T/A, but they are quite pricey. I know alot of people who run the BFG MT's out in the sand and keep comming back to them, so something tells me that that would probably be a good choice. Plus it's a good all around off-road tire.

Ice is the real crippler with the unsiped mt's though. bfg at's would prob suit you just fine. before my procomp mt's(siped) I used to run at's and swampers,switching when necc., I even ran at's in the front and swampers rear once(i checked outer diam first), the swampers on the front like to dig. worked well(off road only)
my procomp mt's are the best all around for me.
