Why do so many people refer to SUVs as "trucks?"

First off, as a preface, for the record, I don't get outraged when someone calls an SUV a "truck" and it has no impact on my blood pressure and mood. It's just a casual and inconsequential annoyance – a curiosity more than anything.
Contrary to many on this board, it's possible to be annoyed by something without getting your drawers in a wad and letting it impact your day.

It's the same when someone calls my grand cherokee a Jeep... it is a jeep, but it's only a brand to me..
When I say I have a jeep, they think a real jeep not a SUV

Considering most people with trucks don’t actually use them, the truck label is bound to expand.

Why do you care how others refer to their vehicle ?

I have never heard anyone refer to an SUV as a truck, unless it was a pure work/farm/camp vehicle that they kept at the worksite/farm/camp.
ETA: And it's usually a beat up old 4WD Suburban with the seats removed, if they do.

It’s stolen valor. SUV drivers aren’t real man enough to drive a truck
The sad thing is they named a whole law and order show about the kind of guys that drive SUV’s and they still drive them

Most people call it by name.
Let's take the Tahoe.
Let's go in the suburban.
Are we going in the 4runner.

Even with your paragraph long preface/prebuttal...

My FIL does this. Has always been confusing to describe an SUV as a truck. It isn’t a truck.

I used to get pissed off when people called 3 wheeler and 4 wheelers as ATVs. I wrote it off as Yankees that smoked poles for a living.

I was really proud of the prebuttal. I was admiring it on the screen before I hit Submit and everything. But in the end it turned out that I overestimated the impact of my prebuttal. Prebuttals are hard!

I’ve always considered use of the term “SUV” to be a homosexual tell.

This SUV is acceptable to refer to as a truck
This SUV is a stationwagon
