As I explained when I quoted this, our trucks genuinely weren't always massive like this, neither were our cars in general. I'm using this example because it's just on my brain right now, but a stock S10 from any year they were made in the US, is going to be significantly smaller and with a lower hood line than a stock Colorado you can pick up off the lot right now.

That is really sad, we went from actively shrinking things down in the early '80s with the likes of the K-cars which saved Chrysler from their first bankruptcy and the early minivans which were derived from the K-cars, which flew off the lots as well, btw, the early minivans were a revolution, basically, right back to making hulking beasts that no one really wants.
