I can pretty much guarantee a beat up old FWD car will tackle pretty much all towing and farm driving (having lived and worked on a farm). For the really gritty stuff on the farm you have your tractors and earth movers and whatnot.

What makes the biggest difference is the tyres you have on a vehicle are suitable for the terrain you are using them in.

In the US, Australia, Canada etc - pick up trucks or utes are just a symbol of working class just as much as Tesla and Prius's are for the green-friendly crowd.
