I’ve heard people throw SUVs into the category of truck before and I’ve never understood it. I assume it’s because early SUVs were built on truck frames?

It’s not just people. When we got our insurance quote in writing, American Family had the MachE labeled as a truck. Spousal Dave was concerned we’d need truck plates, he’s calmed down since then.

Folks in North Jersey probably think an SUV is a truck. ;)

Like everywhere else we have a "million" SUV's.......I think they are just really confused to see the Mustang badges and the car is not a typical Mustang.....I think it's hard for us to realize that there is a huge amount of people who know nothing about the Mach e, even car guys I know, know nothing, yet we have been so active with the Mach e, we know it better than most dealers who are selling it, haha......

State Farm calls both my Edge and my wife's CX5 "Sport Wagons". The SC registration for both calls the body style "SU", I assume for Sport Utility, no V.

I definitely would never classify the Mach-E as an "SUV", let alone a "truck", lol. To me, truck is something with a body-on-frame design and high ground clearance / towing capability. And usually 4x4.

Mach-E is really a large hatchback.

good thing it's a sport utility and not a fun utility or that might be very awkward

Are explorers an SUV or a truck? They are a body on frame, I always thought they were SUVs ?
That said, I agree with "large hatchback" but compact SUV would work also. Is a Subaru Outback a station wagon, a sport utility wagon, or an SUV. I'm confused :eek:
