Geez, how much compensating do they need?!? Is it that bad? Like, button-mushroom size?
Can you put a Beetle or Smart onto the back of the cancer?
Up to this day they correct their street name to be Little Richard.
I'm pretty sure the scales are different. Look at the door handles: regardless of the size of the vehicle, anything that interact with human beings should be roughly the same scale and the door handles just aren't.
Not to say that American trucks aren't ridiculously oversized of course, but that photo looks doctored to me.
The whole point of that site is to compare sizes of cars. Plug in whatever you want to compare: https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/mazda-mx-5-1989-roadster-vs-ford-f-250-2023-4-door-pickup-crew-cab/

Fuck you, Ford!!
The Miata sold well because it was cheaper than an Alpha Romero. Unfortunately, everyone came to realize it would be in the shop exactly as often, practically negating any benefit.
