Even an element has the driver's eyes below the hood of a lot of these new SUVs. I agree, shit sucks. There needs to be regulations around vehicle heights and weights. I don't get why I need a special license to drive a work van that weighs less than these things

Light trucks exist in kind of a legal loophole in the US

These vehicles have been pushed hard because they're not held to the same standard as cars and are more profitable as a result

I'm pretty sure that even tho cars have gotten more efficient that average fuel economy has gone down because of the proliferation of these massive vehicles sold to Americans a daily drivers
