No, if I'm riding on flat pavement. But it's not at all unusual for me to start out riding on a level stretch, climb a few miles of paved road at 6% grade, then go off on a mountain trail. On a ride like that, I do use the majority of the gears. (Of course there's some overlap between the front 3 gears, and the rear 7-8.)
FTM, my pickup has 10 speeds, when you combine the 5 speed transmission with high & low range in the transfer case. And I do use that low range on roads where 1st gear in high range would stall out.
