Tyres are everything, the right rubber makes a huge difference but so does AWD.
In difficult conditions its better to have four wheels pushing rather than two pushing and dragging another two.
I have owned a number of 4x4, two of these were part time four wheel drive. so I could select four wheel drive when needed. Stuck in snow or a rut off road in two wheel drive switching to four wheel drive was the difference between being stuck or moving.
So same vehicle, same tyres and weight, two wheel drive stuck, four wheel drive go.
