According to my own personal snap judgements and prejudices and nothing else, the following are facts... ..


The "Sport" part of "Sport Utility Vehicle" - Nope. The "perky bus" handling kills that.


"Van" - well, if all of the back seats are out and it's now an open cargo area, maybe yes. If you can put a 4x8' sheet back there, then definitely yes.



"Truck" - Body-on-frame? Then yes. Unibody? No.



I'd go with "UTVV" - "Utility Truck Van Vehicle"
