I think most do not consider a truck or an RV to be a "car". The literal definition doesn't seem to make a distinction though, strangely.

- fastball 6y agoAnd by the downvotes I'm getting I guess others agree, haha. But before this moment, I personally would've definitely classified semis and RVs as "cars".
- chrisseaton 6y agoI think for some strange historical reason ‘car’ sort of means ‘sedan’ in the US. Like Ford recently announced they’re stopping selling ‘cars’... but they aren’t they have a full range of many types of cars, just not sedans anymore.
- oh_sigh 6y agoContra Wikipedia's definition of car: > A car (or automobile) is a wheeled motor vehicle used for transportation. Most definitions of cars say that they run primarily on roads, seat one to eight people, have four wheels, and mainly transport people rather than goods. An RV would seat more than 1-8 people, and a truck is designed to transport goods rather than people (despite what they may actually be used for).
