It is definately regional. LOTS of 2WD here is SoCal. When looking for our Expedition EL 4x4 was a requirement. The one we found was a left over, had been on the dealers lot long enough it had a dead battery and was boxed in. They couldn't believe I actually WANTED a 4x4 XLT, especially when gas just hit $4. I got a pretty good deal that day. ...
Interesting - I've seen just the opposite here in SoCal when looking for my numerous Chevy trucks - we've rarely found a Sivlerado or Suburban that wasn't 4x4. I wonder if there's a related factor, such as option packages that I was looking for, which were more likely to be found with 4x4...
