    Hello there Randy D
    Even though Willy's had a wagon that might now be considered an SUV, I would think the Jeep Cherokee may have been the first to have the title.
    I have driven Cherokees for a few decades now and I really like them.

    I always thought that "SUV" was a slang designation. Ya know, for a long time it was pronounced "sport ute".

    In my mind it began with the Ford LUV: a pickup just big enough to haul groceries.
