No. If he said he walked, I'd probably say he drove, but I wouldn't
care what he drove. If he said he bought a car, and I looked at it
and saw a truck, I'd say he bought a truck.
There are different laws governing all kinds of things that are
different between cars and trucks. There are different insurance
rates and registration fees. A truck is not a car any more than a car
is a moped.
