Tesla rescues a snow-stranded BMW

To be honest, my LR AWD MY is the worst vehicle I have ever had for snow. I will need to buy snow tires for the first time in my life. What it needs is the option to disable the traction control completely. Slip start and off road assist both claim to do it but they don’t. Heading to my house is a steep uphill that I need to drive up then turn about 110 degrees right into an even steeper and narrower road. It’s a slow speed turn that requires getting the car pointed in the right direction and nailing the throttle to spin the tires to climb for about 30’ of road. All the Tesla does is slow to a stop then sits there. Eagle talon awd with performance tires, Nissan Pathfinder with some all terrains, Dodge Ram with Nitto duragrapplers, Ford Edge awd with some worn out cheap crappy all seasons all I can make get up that hill but the Tesla just stops like a stubborn mule as it cuts power to stop the wheel spin.
