2 to 3 at most. I use the 4 wheel drive 3 to 4 times per month, getting to my house though.

I own a 2001 GMC Yukon XL SLT w 145000 miles.
I tow our boat approximately 18 times during April-September usually about 80 miles round trip. The there is at least one trip that we tow 1000 miles roundtrip.
I tow our BSA Troop trailer about 4 times a year with all the gear in it. About 6 times a year I haul scouts and all their gear for trips running from 100 miles round trip to 400 miles round trip.
I haul used equipment/gear or building supplies about 4 times a year for myself, family or friends.
I am in 4 wheel drive about 6 times (beaches, off road, logging trails) over the summer and then depending on time off and the weather probably another 6 times in the spring, summer and fall combined.
Thats probably average for me. My wife probably hauls 3 of four times a year on top of that.
BTW - I looked at the future designs and I cant see the appeal. The all look like toys or sports cars. You want one of those then buy a sports car.
See, my YukonXL is a truck not an SUV, it takes me hunting, fishing, camping, boating. I put a deer in it if I manage to shoot one. My beagles (2) ride with me at least 3 times a week. It gets scratched going off road and I spend the next week buffing scratches out.
