Maybe tow rating? Or cargo space (cu ft)?
Your right the industry took advantage of a loop hole, but then customers jumped on the bandSUV (not wagon, see what I did there?). I often wondered how much of this is a chicken vs egg situation. Did people really want SUVs that badly, or did the lack of wagons force people into them? I owned an SUV for all of 8 months before I realized a pickup was more useful.
