  First of all, I wouldn't use the term "ute", because 1) vehicles in
the category "small trucks" aren't neccessarily utes - for example our
flat-tray Ford Ranger obviously isn't a 'ute', but does fall in the
"small trucks" category - and 2) a 'ute' isn't neccessarily a "small
truck", but can be a ute version of passenger car (i.e. Holden
Commodore).

  I think it's not possible to find one word which describes everything
from a small truck to a SUV, because they are inherently very different
vehicles.

  So probably the best is something like "small trucks and full-size
(passenger) 4WDs".

  FWIW, several toll road systems call our Ford Ranger a "light
commercial vehicle".

  FWIW2, for this Dutchie, a "small truck" is just that, i.e. not a big
truck, so that would *not* include our Ford Ranger..

P.S. I hope our Ranger isn't too loneley, sitting in it's shed, till the
next time we (can) come back to Oz! :-)
