I think that for some people, the brand name has become a description of the type of vehicle....they generically refer to all offroad vehicles as "jeeps".
for example, my wife's roommate in college was from Arkansas. Every soft drink of any kind was a "coke" to her. To us Coloradans, soft drinks are called "pop". My midwestern friends say "soda" and our southern friend would say "coke".
