Not enough space for a stroller, had to walk in the middle of the street to go around the SUV.

    Yup. If it’s got a bed in the back for transporting stuff, it’s a truck. In this case, a short-box truck.

    An SUV is basically like a tall 4-door sedan with hinged doors a hatch-back (if the rear doors are sliding, then it’s a van/mini-van)

        Sorta.

        The Chevrolet El Camino was a car-based light truck that Chevrolet offered from 1959–'60 and 1964–1987

        It was also a train, according to Wikipedia :-)

          Lol… I had to ask my gen z kid if he knew what they were… He didn’t so I showed him… Then I asked him, “car or truck”… He says car so that’s the answer from the future of America… 😂

            LoL. Still to be fair from the front they very much look like a car and the chassis is probably more car than truck. It’s one of those weird in-between things but I suppose it is still better at carrying a load of whatever than a standard sedan.
