Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Panel truck

Firstly, the trucks on which panel trucks were based were not SUVs. The term SUV did not appear in common usage until the late 1980s. Secondly, trucks back then were not commonly available with 4WD; if you wanted a four-wheel-drive Ford F or such in the 1950s you would have to get Marmon-Herrington or another aftermarket company to convert it to four-wheel drive.

• The Coolmaterial site is just a random collection of words, not a reputable source, and it doesn't even support your notion that "SUVs provided the basis for panel trucks." Instead, the "author" opines that the panel truck was the basis for the modern SUV.
• The Car Connection article only states that the HHR's design was inspired by the Suburban. The Suburban was not even a panel truck to begin with, it was a wagon on a truck chassis. And in either case it doesn't ever suggest that panel trucks are based on crossovers.
• I suggest you read the Automacha article again. It never, not once, uses the expression "panel truck" as it is a Malaysian writer explaining how some SUVs are sold as panel vans in the UK to suit local tax loopholes. It has zero bearing on this article.
