There's a video of a Legacy towing a F150 out of snow as well.

Sorry, but that wasn't some crazy impressive feat that the WRX did.
Power is not the issue here, it's weight and traction. Spinning all four tires in the snow does not require much engine. Between what traction the truck had and what the WRX had, it was just enough.
You probably could have hooked just about any AWD car up and it would have done the same.

on a side note, thats so bad for the chassis, the sti is not rated for towing, let alone towing a semi, but on the positive side, GO SUBARU POWER!

Personally, I think this video is fake. Even if the truck was emply, the truck and trailer would still weight over 40,000 lbs and there is no way the STi can pulll that much weight even if the truck was spinning it's drive wheels.

The STi is spinning all 4 tires which means most of the power the car is making is being used to spin the 4 tires which means very little forward force. All of a sudden the 40,000 lb truck lurches forward and drives away. Right.... so this video must be real.
