Most SUVs will never see a day of offroad driving in their lives. That's good because most of them aren't suited for it in a stock configuration anyway.

Yeah, the people who actually go offroad use Mercedes Gelandewagen or the less consumerized models from Land Rover and Jeep.

Or a Toyota 4Runner, which is built for trail use from the factory. So much that they lost sales in the few years they tried tuning it for the road.
