This varies by country. In New Zealand, a light commercial vehicle refers to a utility vehicle, van, or any other light (under 4500kg) vechicle that is not specifically designed for private passenger usage. SUV's are considered as passenger vehicles. In the US, as I understand at least, the light commercial defintition is not used, and instead, the two main categories used in official vehicle usage statistics are trucks and cars. In this case, SUV's, vans, and utility vehicles are considered trucks.

Anything whose purpose is commercial in nature would be a commercial vehicle. To that end, rental cars are commercial vehicles. If you're talking about the FMCSA definition of a Commercial Motor Vehicle, it would depend on year, make, model, and if it's used on a for-hire basis. If it's used for commercial purposes and has a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating in excess of 10,000 lbs., it's a Commercial Motor Vehicle, and, IIRC, the current models of the Ford F350 and other one ton chassis have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating in the 12 - 13,000 lb, range, meaning they would be CMVs, and they would require the FHWA annual inspection sticker, etc. The operator would also be required to keep a current DOT medical card in interstate operations.
