Depends on what type tires are on the car. I have a front wheel drive car, and with the normal "all season" tires, it is about helpless in any sort of snow or slush. Last year I bought a set of true winter tires for it with directional tread. That car would go about anywhere I wanted to go in the snow, even mud. I believe it would go until it high centered with those tires on it. Now I swap off the all season tires about Thanksgiving for the winter tires, then swap back in March or when I feel winter weather has passed. Not sure about the truck, but I have heard many who owned those trucks say they are very front heavy, and the dual rear wheels make it worse unless you place a huge amount of weight in the rear to plant those dual rear wheels, and offset that front weight. My thought......buy a set of winter tires for the car and head out.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
