Cars/truck and mud are funny things. I got my little coupe stuck in the yard last Saturday. I needed to get the car out of the way so we could unload a new gun safe from my youngest son's truck till I get a place inside sorted out to place it.
My Coupe weight about 3600 lbs. has a V6. 6 spd. manual, traction control, high performance summer tires, positraction rear end, etc. I fired it up, backed it out of the garage and stopped. Turned the wheels to the left so I could get out of his way and got it stuck right there when the front end started sinking into the wet dirt/grass. The back tires just started spinning. Got some small boards under the back tires (1/2" by 3" treated stuff) and gave it the gas and it pulled up on the small boards and backed up straight. Backed it on up to the driveway between the carports and parked that muddy little sucker in front of my truck.
Then my son back his truck up to the garage and we unloaded the safe. His truck is a 1 ton, crew cab, 4WD, 8 ft. bed monster with 38" tires and a 6" lift kit. He didn't spin a tire and he didn't sink in. I bet that sucker weighs close to 7 or 8,000 lbs.
My car needs a bath, bad.
That is the 2nd time I've gotten that Coupe stuck in the mud when the yard was wet. Never get the other vehicles stuck in 2" of grass/mud. I'll bet it wouldn't go worth beans in the snow either.
