When does a 4wd start getting called a truck?

[lino6]

And a tow bar with rated shackles.....

Well, call me a toss, call me what you like, I call my Patrol a Truck. I know many blokes that have female names for there vehicles and honestly don't see the difference. Has nothing to do with ego, or over compensating for anything, it's just a term of endearment to your pride and joy....Call your car, truck or princess what you like.......It's there to be enjoyed.....:-)

Love my truck....:-)

I like to drive trucks, wouldn't like to have to pay to rego one though....

IMO, it's a complete toss to refer to any wagon-bodied 4WD as a truck, but plenty do.....

I agree. It is a W@nk to refer to your 4WD as a truck - IMO of course I would rather describe my 4WD and a 4WD anyway. Like I said, just my opinion.

My 5 year old son calls my 76 series the "work truck", but he watches too much foxtel!

If it's leaf sprung, it's a truck!

My Sierra has leaf springs front and rear, does that make it a b-double

So a unimog is a ute 4by? I wish it was then I could justify buying one!

Thinking if your the one sitting in a little jellybean car  the size of an egg and looking up under the front end of something three times wider and higher ... monstering you with a big steel bullbar, lights and arials etc  etc all over the place ... the word Truck might spring to mind ..

Agree X100

A truck is a truck. A ute is a ute. A wagon is a wagon..... need I go on?

[Brumbypt]

in america a truck is a ute, big or small.


4x4, or suv for a wagon.

Yep, and the last time I looked, I don't live in America. Thankfully!
A 4by can be called a truck if its a ute AND bigger than a F350.

I thought they are called pick ups ? Yet referred to as a truck by some. Kind of like here.

[gclan]

I occasionally referred to our Defender as a truck. It was big and felt like a truck to drive, and had nothing to do with over compensating (I don't want anything bigger than anyone else's, trust me )

Truck was just a word.

[Brumbypt]

The full name  for pickup, is PICKUP TRUCK, so some ppl call them trucks others call them pickup so both are right.

Thats why monster trucks got their name.
tuff trucks
etc etc

My Oka's a truck with the GVM at 5.5 ton.  Registration Certificate states Body type "truck". My other 4x4 is a Mazda BT-50. In Thailand the locals call it a Bangkok Truck so I guess I own two trucks now!

There was a TOYota  Land Cruiser on the Bruce Hwy yesterday that was laying on its side in a mud puddle.

I'm sure I heard one of the 6 blokes standing around it pointing to it say "it was TRUCKED", so I guess, its a truck, cause da guy said so.

It was there when went down to Brissie with other Jap crap (Toyota and Nissan 4 WDS) packed around it.

It was no surprise, when it was still there on the return trip, but a bloke in Jeep  had turned up by then, so I bet it got towed back over on its wheels and out the mud with some good ol  Jeep power.

JEEP POWER....

[Bad Scott]

Jeep power. LOL. Where's the thumbs down

The 200 is called the "truck" in our family because this makes it easier to differentiate between the two vehicles.

Wifes vehicle is called the "car", mine is the "truck"


...........however I think there are bigger issues in the world at the moment
