And you don't understand the point that no they haven't gotten that much bigger if you actually stop being dishonest and compare trucks of the same type instead of comparing two different trucks.
"I'm looking at my girlfriend sub compact hatchback and my SUV and damn, cars sure did get much bigger over the two years between their production!"
That's the level of intelligence in this exchange.
You're wrong. I don't need to prove it. It doesn't matter what anyone is comparing when you can easily look around and see more large trucks on the road, especially outside of America where large trucks were rare until recently. You'd have to be intentionally ignoring this fact to not notice, which you are.
Again, numbers don't lie, go check the dimensions of a crew cab Long box F150 from 20 years ago vs today and the size isn't that different.
"But my eyes tell different!"
Yeah, that's why your don't rely on your eyes and your rely on actual spec sheets.
Sure hope you stay far from any field that has to do with measurements.
I sure hope you stay away from any field that involves counting items or using judgement
I specifically keep telling you that individual model sizes have nothing to do with the point, but that's all you will cling to. Because it's all you have
Using judgement is what I'm doiny and what you seem unable to do.
"That 1968 Mini is so much smaller than that 2003 Ford Transit, damn cars are so much bigger these days!"
Does that make sense to you? No? Well the picture posted previously used the same logic and you're defending it.
