For the most part I only whip out the audiobooks during those long read-a-thon challenges. Like many here, I miss out on too much of the book otherwise. I've had ones with excellent narrators I admired and kept thinking, they do a great job, but it's just the way I'm wired. Reading is the only thing that calms my brain down - I always lose minutes with everything else in the world. Audiobooks don't calm me down and let me immerse myself the same way - I can stay into the book for about 10 minutes if something very interesting is going on, but that's it, then I'll start missing some spots.
