Answer 2

Sports Utility Vehicle. Basically a pickup with a roof over the bed. Like the Ford Explorer which is basically a F150 with a cargo area.

Answer 3

Sport Utility Vehicle  

Answer 4

Sport Utility Vehicle. Not ALL SUV's are 4wheel drives, and not all four wheel drives are SUV's. An SUV is basically a truck chassis, but with the cargo area enclosed. The interior cab area extends where the bed of a pickup would normally be.

   The "4x4" or 4 wheel drive is an additional mechanism added to the drive train. The 'transfer case' takes power from the engine and applies it to the front wheels, so that the engine is powering ALL 4 wheels, rather than just 2. It's seperate from an SUV classification to the vehicle.  

Answer 5

Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV)

Answer 6

Station wagon with a lift kit!

Answer 7

SUV means Sport Utility Vehicle. 4 wheel drive means that all four wheels get power all the time instead of just the front two or the back two
