I had to back-up a couple of times before traction kicked in. It may have been my OEM tires? Previous to the X3 I drove a Ford Explorer and it would pull through anything with no problems. It may have been a combination of OEM tires and ground clearance on the X3.
Gee, strange I had a Explorer and I can't say that. I got stuck in my driveway a few times. On the same token my 94 4 Runner could go through any thing almost like your Explorer. LOL
cheers
