Here in north TX where we typically have snow/ice no more than once or twice a year for no more than a couple days each time, it is almost impossible to find a 4x2 except in basic XL/XLT work trucks. Anything from Lariat up on dealer lots is almost always going to be a 4x4, SRW or DRW. It would be a matter of taking what you can find, but may not be exactly what you want. Or order exactly what you want in a 4x2 and wait 8 weeks or so for delivery. I have ordered new years ago, but not my preference. But then, I don't have any plans to buy a new one anytime soon anyway.

I do occasionally drive thru muddy pasture roads to our hunting cabin. Have made it before in a 4x2 with limited slip. But just barely. And actually got stopped a little short at the incline up toward the cabin. Current 4x4 makes that easier. But have never used 4 wheel while towing.
