Truck bloat is killing us, new crash data reveals
We love our big, deadly trucks, don’t we, folks?

Welcome to 30 years ago. This is the least new news I've seen in ages!
30 years ago you could get a normal size truck. Now you can't.
Okay does nobody on this site actually follow car stuff.
The Ford Maverick is what you're describing. It's smaller than a lot of SUVs. It sold so incredibly well that every other car company that makes pickup trucks is racing to copy it.
You're taking things a little too literally, things will be said with a tiny, miniscule, little bit of hyperbole. Geez.
And from what I see, it's crew cab only. So no, even with your pedanticness you can't buy what you could 30 years ago.
You said you can't get a normal sized truck. I pointed out that only can you, but said models sell incredibly well.
I feel like you were caught running your mouth without actually having any idea what you're talking about and then tried to pretend you were joking.
Again, a little itsy bitsy tiny bit of hyperbole is normal in common speech. You're being pedantic.
And a crew cab only? Base model has a short box (maybe I'll check the others later). Even with your pedanticness you're wrong lol. And now projection! You are the one running your mouth when you're flat out wrong lol.
Enjoy the last word trying to get out of it.
How old are you? The way you're talking is extremely childish and vindictive.
Because people stopped buying them. They decided they'd rather be safer at the expense of everyone else on the road. 'Merka! Fuck yeah!
Actually regulations killed them.
Lack thereof. Relaxed emissions standards on larger vehicles meant that manufacturers could save cost by making their vehicles bigger and bigger.
So that's what they did. They stopped selling smaller trucks to avoid regulation and pushed the idea that they were safer (for the person inside them) and part of an adventure freedom fantasy for suburban families.
A flat emissions standard for all non-commercial vehicles would have prevented that.
Okay so bad regulation killed them.
So..... not welcome to 30 years ago.
And haven't you heard the idea that CAFE standards increased the size of vehicles?
