Try to do any of this with today's car or trucks.
Hillarious when the truck tips over.

I suspect that not many of today's cars could keep up in mud that deep. Even the 4x4's- when the front axle hits the mud, it's time to break out the shovel and start digging. That thing just blasted right thru- and you can see the front axle dragging.

These cars, with skinny tires, low horsepower, and no limited slip differentials appear to do just astounding.
Without all the detail, my Range Rover owner's manual did say that for muddy roads, wide high flotation tires were not a good idea. A narrow tire will sink through the upper layer of water and slush, and hit more solid ground and get traction. A wide tire, won't sink through the upper layer or water and slush and will just spin.
