How Well does the Yaris handle on dirt roads?

[JacobFL]

I am thinking about getting a Yaris because I drive many miles a day and the Yaris seems affordable but nice for a small hatchback car and I am looking for something with great MPG. There is one road I often drive on that is a dirt/clay road and when it rains hard, the road turns to mush in places for about a mile. People with small 2 wheel drive cars (Corollas, etc.) usually get through the road without being stuck but it can be difficult. I have driven down that road when it is muddy in a small car like an old Ford Escourt and when the road was really bad I remember just getting by without getting stuck. When the road was only sort of muddy I could get by in the Escourt whthout too much trouble. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Yaris on such a bad, muddy road. I figure with the skinny tires it might be easy to get stuck. I don't expect it to get through mud like a Jeep, obviously!
