So does that mean by definition an SUV is a body on frame construction rather than unibody? I'm not sure where crossover came from, because we've had the CR-V since 1997, and my guess is it was called a small SUV back then.

These distinctions are getting ridiculous. Apparently there's a difference between a hatchback, and a liftback, and both of those are different than a station wagon how?
