An SUV is a car that was built over the frame of a pickup truck in order to abuse some very bad regulations around emissions. So, this at least has the frame of a truck.
Maybe originally, but now they use a cheaper and less durable car frame for many of them.
This interior looks like a minivan to me. Very few of those are body-on-frame.
Does it have a truck’s suspension?
That weight will fuck up some shit if it doesn’t.
My mom drives an suv and she’s a ditchpig.
I think you’re underestimating the suspension.
I might be. That is why it was a question. Some of them are tuned to haul families and their shit but that seems quite disparate from hauling rocks.
This is a mini-van.
I know the early ones started that way, but many modern SUVs are closer to minivans with additional clearance and worse aerodynamics/feul economy.
Of course vans and minivans started off as the equivalent of enclosed trucks, so maybe I’m putting more meaning into the intermediary step than it deserves.
Just make sure to isolate the drivers area… A rock slips under the brakes and that’s a death trap.
And if you slam on the brakes, that’s also a death trap.
More like a rock slide.
~I’ll see myself out.~
Not sure slamming on þe breaks is going to do much. At þis point, þe whole contrivance has mass þose breaks are utterly unequipped to deal wiþ.
At least þe inevitable collision will squash þe driver between two masses: þey won’t have to worry about lawsuits.
Why are you using thorn?

*brakes. Buy a dictionary since you lack an education.
My mother did this in the back of her Mazda Protege with about a cubic yard of potting soil. No tarp or tote or anything in it, she just managed to talk whoever it was at the garden center into dumping it straight into the trunk with a bucket loader. I have absolutely no idea what the fuck she was thinking, but this resulted in her moaning about the trunk being “dirty” as if it were someone else’s fault (presumably mine) right up until the very day she got rid of that car.
I actually did this with my dad in his Vanagon camper. Put a tarp on the floor and shoveled gravel on it, then (slowly) hauled it home.
I use my car like a truck. Removed the back seats and made a plywood platform. I haul all types of stuff back there. But not gravel lol
Agent: “Okay, so you’re returning the rental Toyota minivan today. Any damage to the vehicle?”
Renter: “No. However, there might be some dirt in the back passenger area.”
Agent: “Oh thats no problem light dirt from foot traffic is common”cries in suspension
No worries, the chassis is sitting directly on top of the wheels now.
Gonna be sold as a lightly used vehicle. Mint condition
