I had an '05 explorer for years and would feel weird calling it a truck. My definition of truck centered around a pickup truck with a bed.

Now that I have a bronco I find myself experiencing the same thing although I do feel a little better calling it a truck.

I mostly just say bronco, i.e. "let's take my bronco" instead of "let's take my car/truck"
I call it "DUSTY". But the factory calls Broncos trucks so IMO....it is a truck!

Meh, whatever.

State Farm calls it a sport wagon - same as all SUVs. I can't think of it as a wagon, though. To me that's a 70s wagon with plastic wood on the sides. It's just the Bronco.

I have had people tell me they like my Jeep. One lady in a red Jeep stopped and said she liked her Jeep until she saw my red Bronco.

Truck. It’s a habit from my years owning an FJ40. I guess because it had solid axels and leaf springs, “truck” fit the Toyota but not so much the bronco now that I think about it some more. 🤔

guess I’ll call it a bronco now.

Around family I say "the Bronco", but in public I say "the car" because I don't want to sound pretentious. Got called a Jeep today by a stranger and didn't correct them because it seemed a bit obnoxious ;)
Yeah I don't get offended when people I don't even know refer to it as a jeep. It kinda looks like a Jeep if you don't really pay attention to off road vehicles. When I'm on the highway and I see a jeep far ahead, it often turns out being a bronco. And vice versa.

Ya could say, let's take the convertible. Because it actually is. Or take the doors off and call it a jeep. "ITs a jeep thing." Or its 4dr and just call it a wagon.

Trucks haul beets and such.

The Bronco, like all SUVs, is a station wagon.

Might as well call it a Jeep though. Good luck finding any Bronco trails on the map.

The one thing you can't call it is a Bronco because people will ask, "Which one? The big one or the sport one?"

Jokes out of the way, I call it the Love Machine.

Call it what you will but it is most certainly not a "car". I doubt this conversation happens on Jeep forums.
