I agree technically SUV's are trucks kinda like with a camper shell and back seats in general but nowadays we have car based SUV's and body on frame truck based SUV's but all in all an SUV is a truck in nature...

The RX is a different animal. Yes you are correct that the RX is on a Camry chasis but the body is similar to a truck with a camper shell integrated as one. The RX has lots of curves. It's not so truckish or squarish. But then again what about station wagons, are they considered a truck with a car chasis? At this point there is no such thing as black and white and we get to a point where it becomes grey. All in all it's up to your own judgement on whether you think the RX is a truck deep down inside...
