I'm with you there. After spending a few years living in the country in an area that gets snow/ice (and roads don't get consistently plowed), I won't go without some form of 4x4 or AWD in the driveway again. I learned it's better to have it and not need it than find you need it and not have it.
Plus, the 4R has gotten me through a couple of situations that became unexpectedly worse than we planned for - nowhere near the 4R's max, but I was glad to have the extra capability and peace of mind at the time. Other times it has just made things much more convenient - simply going through a bad section of road or a parking area with deep potholes and not having to worry about dragging parts off the underside or finding another route/place to park.
But yeah, 99.9% of the time I'm a poser.
