  • The Origins of the SUV
    The origins of the SUV IFTY YEARS AGO, farmers, soldiers, hunt- Fers and the odd explorer drove four-wheel drives. Four-wheel drives were listed in most car guides as commercial vehicles, along with pickup trucks and goods vans. The sight of a four-wheel drive on main street simply meant that a farmer had come to town for the day. Three events changed all that. 1 Uncredited images are believed to be in the public domain.

All other contentAll © content The Dog © &dogandlemon.com Lemon Guide 2016 2016 • All rights reserved In 1963, Jeep produced a vehicle called the Wagoneer. It looked like a family station wagon with fake wooden panelling. However, the Wag- oneer shared most of its DNA with the Jeep Gladiator pickup truck. As such, four-wheel drive versions of the Wagoneer were both tough and capable offroad. A few people have claimed that the Wagoneer was the first modern SUV, although none of these people appear to have actually driven one: the ride is rattly, boneshakingly hard and the handling crudely boat-like. The Wagoneer was also rather poorly built. However, the Wagoneer was gradually im- proved and lasted, amazingly, until 1991. 2 All content © dogandlemon.com 2016 The 1970 Range Rover is a more likely candi- date for the first modern SUV. It was designed from scratch, as a vehicle for Britain’s upper classes. Range Rover owners could effortlessly tow their horse floats up muddy roads while they rode up front in semi-luxury. When Range Rover owners returned to their mansions, their servants could clean out the interior with a hose (carpets weren’t fitted to early models).
