Have never been stuck.
With good snow tires zero the thing is a tank in the snow.
I have had to stop to help push AWD cars out of my way several times.
Do it!
I got stuck twice in 3 winters. Once I parked on pure ice. Other time I was leaving a parking with 2-3' of snow and an Impreza got stuck in front of me. Had to push him, then when he left I got stuck. The car is pretty good otherwise.

I only had a scary moment with this car though during a lane change, but the variables were not in my favor. Rainy winter day, slush, black ice, very windy, etc... You name the bad conditions, it was there. The drive train is not the reason for this scary event, I wasn't even pressing the throttle during this lane change because I know better.
