Terminology - 6x6 picture at the start

RV? I'd hardly put a 6x6 medium weight off-road utility truck into the same category as a Range Rover or something. Yevad (talk) 17:50, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

I concur - the vehicle in the picture is better described as an expedition vehicle than an RV. I have made a note on Talk:List of recreational vehicles motivating this. The term was given by the person who uploaded the picture, hence a number of articles have used it. If this reaches some consensus, it will be worth changing them all. By the way, I would also add that a Range Rover is also not an RV, judging by the article.My Gussie (talk) 01:59, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

Opps! I get mixed up with all of the acronyms prevalent in the US. I forget the acronym that Americans use for small off road vehicles. To Brits an RV is a camper and small off road vehicles are generally called 4x4s (four-by-fours).Yevad (talk) 12:42, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
