Give me a good reason why you call the X5 a "truck".

In Australia we call these vehicles either SUVs or in general, four wheels drives (4WD).

I thought you guys called them Ute's. As in sport "UTILITY" vehicles.

A ute is what we call your Pick-ups over here.

But the X5 type vehicles are more commonly known as four wheel drives (4WD).

But hard core 4WDrivers call them Soft-Roaders, as they are not real off-road vehicles and have very limted off-road capabilities.
