why is it so hard to believe that an awd 300+ hp car pulled a truck out?

Look at the piece of twine they used. [laugh]

spec. is 300 ft-lb at ~3000 rpm.  no low range though.  with stock tires,  the
STI would be spinning all 4.
With my old WRX I had to use either snow chains or snow tires in deep snow/winter conditions otherwise all 4 wheels did spin up, often. Leading to brown marks in my pants at times.

The recommended OE Bridgestone Potenza RE011 were good in the dry but just absolutely shite in the wet and scary in the winter.

Blizzaks would have been a better choice.
