Also, there was a Plymouth Station Wagon "Suburban" model in 1950 and 
for different years as late as 1977? perhaps?..  Seems to me like it was 
a popular model name in the industry.
But they are not panel type vans or trucks or SUV's, etc.  But, I think 
there was one prototype Plymouth  that was a jacked up 4WD Suburban but 
looked like Station Wagon body on it.

There was also a 46-48 Nash Suburban... an Ambassador with "Woody" trim.

According to the "Chevrolet Suburban" entry in Wikipedia Chevy wasn't
granted an exclusive trademark to the name until 1988. That's most
likely because others used it as well before. Apparently no one took the
time to register the name in the 40s.

Chevrolet Suburban - since 1935 (now at 72 years)

It is uncommon for two vehicles to carry the same
name while manufactured by two different companies.
The DeSoto Suburban was manufactured from 1946
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1946>
through the 1954 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1954>  model year.

 Does that mean that the Chevy truck Suburban was
not called a Suburban during that time?
