Most folks who have 4x4 will only engage it ONCE during the entire life of the truck, some will use it a few times and even less will use it nearly 100% of the time..

Where did you get this statistic from?
I'm sure there are people who rarely if ever use their 4wd, but MOST will only use it ONCE? I'm not convinced that's accurate.
In my circle, we use 4wd regularly, both for off road trips, steep and slippery boat launch ramps, snow trips, etc...
Pretty simple. I personally know quite a few people that bought 4x4s and don't have an idea as to how to engage 4x4.. These folks own lifted "boulevard queens" with wagon wheel rims and way oversized tires, drive in the city, their trucks have never touched dirt let alone mud.. Happens a lot more than you think..
I also have several relatives who use 4x4 a lot, just to get in and out of their driveway IN THE SUMMER.. I walk down the hill myself instead of taking the chance of my vehicles SLIDING into their house IN THE SUMMER..
