Last night I got stuck for a little at the end of my driveway in the snow, but the problem is that my driver's side tire was sitting on a place that had perfect traction and my passenger side tire was the one in the deeper snow and it seemed that all the power was going to the passenger side tire and I had a hell of a time getting it unstuck. Why wasn't my driver's side tire getting any power???

because you have the stock differential. its whats called an open differential. the power is going to go to the wheel with the least resistance.
