Nothing Like A Jeep
Nothing may be more patriotic than driving a Jeep. The original Jeep went into production in 1941 specifically for the military, arguably making them the oldest SUVs. The Jeep became the primary light 4-wheel-drive vehicle of the United States Army and the Allies during WWII. But what about the funny name? A dictionary of military slang, published in 1942, in the library at The Pentagon gives this definition:
Jeep: A four-wheel drive vehicle of one-half- to one-and-one-half-ton capacity for reconnaissance or other army duty.
