: ABS brakes + gas = Traction Control?

We've had some ice here in Texas. Drove home 20 miles in second the whole way (2wd Auto). Never spun a wheel... but

Has anyone with wheel spin stuck issues tried pushing the gas and the brake at the same time in an EX with ABS. It seems like that would stop the spinning wheel and make the "not spinning" wheel start to pull. As the ABS would "think" the still one was skidding and release te brake on the still wheel.

Does this work to get you unstuck?

Since no ones answering this,
I kind of doubt it.
This might be of some help...
