It was first a 4 door. Then they made it 2.

Knowing corporate America, it was probably an evil capitalist scheme to earn money by selling vehicles that people were willing to buy.

I have a 04. It is a 4 door? The real question is, why did they make a 2 door out of a utility vehicle in the first place

The new GMC Yukon was introduced for 1992, while Chevrolet continued calling their version the Blazer. All were 2-door models through 1994. In 1995 the Chevy changed the name of the Blazer to Tahoe and introduced a 4-door version.

Why are you asking this question? They have made a 4 door Yukon/Tahoe for years now.

No they weren't...
Before the term "sports utility vehicle" was coined, Ford made the Bronco which was kind of like a jeep truck combo, then they eventually closed in the back... Chevy made the Surburban/Carry All which was more of a work/ delivery truck.. They also made the K Blazer which was a 2 door sport truck..
Ford came out with the 4 door Explorer in the early 90's which took off... GM wanted to compete so they made the first 4 dr Tahoe/Yukon in 95.. They quit making the 2 dr in 99... I had a 95 2dr the first year they changed the name from Blazer/Jimmy to Tahoe/ Yukon...
Till 99 GM still made an S10 2 and 4 door Blazer/Jimmy
70K Blazer
70 GMC Jimmy
The early 70s Suburbans came 2 and 4 dr...
Chevy was the first to make an "SUV" in the 30's/40's

They can't make those things fast enough to keep up with the increasing demand.

Trucks used to be single cab
Then trucks had camper shells
Then vehicles like Broncos came out which was basically a truck with a permanent camper shell.
Then trucks got extended cabs around the 80s prob
Then trucks became double cabs with 3 or 4 doors around the mid 90s I think
Then the evolution if the soccer mom SUVs happened and now you see suburbian families running errands and needing a Hummer to go shop at Bed Bath and Beyond.
