Using your 4wd
Just wondering how often you guys use your 4wd.
The neighbor just bought a new Avalanch Z71. I asked him why he needed 4wd and when the last time he used it, and he could not remember. He figured It had been over 2 years
Just a note, I use mine about 1-2 times per week

My truck isn't a 4x4, but her Tracker is. We only use it in the snow on the uncleared roads. Guess you could call it a concrete cowboy. or cowgirl as it is her truck.

I use my 4 wheel drive when ever I need it. I don't count the number of times. I used 4 low just yesterday pulling a stump outta the ground. I don't go looking for the deepest mudhole I can find and don't look for the unbeatable hill to climb, I take each as I get to them and decide then... getting too old and can't afford to be breaking the new beast I have, compared to my older 4x4s and when I was younger and more daring. I still do things during hunting season that makes my best friends hair turn a tad greyer though.

84 B-II I use it but don't really abuse it. I haven't flipped it yet, I haven't drowned it. I have stuck it in the snow but a winch fixed that. It's just a necessity where I live and work in order to get to some of the jobs that I work on.

We camp alot,as well as any other outside activity we can find, so the 4wd is the weapon of choice, besides, the winters here change the roads to sheets of ice, and the snow sometimes gets pretty deep, so 4wd or at the least, front wheel drive. So at least 3 times a week in the summer and 24/7 in the winter.
