I have exactly the same problem with my truck (F250 2WD diesel). Takes only a bit of mud to load up the all season tread. The tires then become "slicks" and the truck is stuck.

Open tread mud 'n snows help a lot, but as you note they are noisy on dry pavement and they don't last very well.

My solution is to stay out of questionable traction situations (which we have plenty of in rain-soaked upstate NY) and use my son's 4x4 F250 instead. A I keep a bungee, a couple log chains and a comealong in the toolbox for the infrequent occasions when I do get stuck!
