And, if you drop down to the local garden centre and ask the fellow to
put a yard of top-soil in the back, he will have a difficult time doing
so with the bucket on the tractor!
You will need a trailer to tow behind your "truck"!

Regardless of what you call it, it's a decent hauler. I don't know what the
weight was, but we hauled a lot of fire bricks, bags of clay and sand, etc.
when we built the wood fired oven in the back of the ML and it never
noticed. I pulled a large fallen oak tree across the yard with it in the
low range - very cool.
It wouldn't hold a 4X8 sheet of plywood in the back though . . .

Well, that depends upon whose definition you use:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sport_utility_vehicle
<< According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a "sport utility vehicle"
is "a rugged automotive vehicle similar to a station wagon but built on a
light-truck chassis".[1]>>
So Webster's considers the W163 a light truck, but not Mercedes' newer
SUVs.

Life is funny.
You seem determined to define your Mercdes as a "truck".
On the other side of that scenario, I recall that we had friends, many
years ago, who were insulted when I referred to their full sized Chevy
Blazer as a "truck".
