Oversized SUVs and American style pickup trucks are starting to dominate Australia's streets - and this is causing huge environmental and safety problems. So...
Yeah, a pickup truck is a body-on-frame vehicle with two separate body units: the forward section with the engine compartment and passenger compartment often called the cab, and a separate cargo box that in some cases might be removed and some other body installed for specialty jobs. An Aussie ute is built with its body as a single assembly, and some might even be unibody construction rather than body-on-frame.
Utes often share styling or even components with sedans, pickups don’t.
