EPA regulations on emissions, in relation to size, caused light trucks (and the SUVs based on them) to grow to the size you see. Ironically, the fuel efficient small pickup trucks and SUVs we grew up with in the 80s and 90s don’t meet modern standards. I die a little inside every time I see one of the Nissan trucks, like the one I totaled. ;_;
That’s bullshit. Most of the area behind the grill is empty space. Nothing to do with EPA ( which doesn’t even exist any more).
The truck makers need to justify the ridiculous profit margins on these 60s era technology vehicles, so they just made them taller, to the point people need steps to get into them. I’m sure someone is working on an escalator.

I don’t think it’s bs.
