I'd love to see the overall height and length of the car over the same years.
Not as much difference as you might think
The site scales the images so it's not as visually different as it would be otherwise
How the fuck do you even see anything? Forget being hit by someone else. I'd be more worried about not seeing a downed powerline or a deer.
Or children
See, this argument assumes you care about the lives of deer and children
I actually think this is true. It often feels like USians treat the problem of pedestrian, especially child, deaths like those parents of the kid that died from measles.
Not sure I agree. The 1976 regular cab you linked is 16 foot 5 inches.
The modern regular cab you linked is 17 foot, 5 inches.
But that's not what the original image is checking. If we also check the current SuperCrew+ShortBed, that one is 19 foot, 4 inches.
So yeah, trucks are 3 feet longer and yet have less cargo room in the bed.
(And yes, TY for finding the links!)
Thanks a lot for the research that I should have done!
