It's not a big surprise that the manual-transmission SUV is next up on the chopping block for vehicles sending the manual the way of the dodo.

Most trucks and some SUVs have what is known as body-on-frame construction, which is exactly what it sounds like. The body of the vehicle is bolted to the frame, versus the unibody construction of most cars and crossovers. The advantage of body-on-frame is that it allows for better ground clearance, which lends itself well to off-roading applications, and the reason why most trucks and serious SUVs are built that way.
