There is a TV add out at this time by Jeep stating that they had the first SUV in 1942. This statement is in the background text of one of their adds. Yes I might agree that the SUV had its' roots in military vehicles but who made the first ancestor is not important to anyone but the marketeers who are tying to put one over on the general public. Which they have done a very good job of and have created a "need" for a fully loaded plush bucket instead of a truck and in doing so they have been able to "create a demand" which has allowed them to put a tremendous mark up on the "SUVs" Dealers, in my area, are now advertizing discounts of 7 to 8K from MSRP in the papers and you know that they are still making money doing it.
