Dave, the best reason for us to have a 4x4 is right here at my house. In order to "jump" the curb while backing along side my house, I use the 4x4, otherwise, I just spin my tires.
One of the first times I used the 4x4 was to help out a friend at a cg where he couldn't get out from under his 5er on wet grass. From that point on, I use it cause "I can".
I'll not argue with anyone about mpg's, I know I don't get as good as 2wd, but that was my choice.
This is only my honest opinion and should not be taken as a "rule"!
p.s. My next truck will be a dually with 4x4.
