The curious thing is that though the trucks have gotten larger, as far as I can tell without a tape measure, the beds are still the same size.
Crash tests have done it because we can't or won't engineer lighter and safer solutions.

My cobalt is bloated up to about 2900lbs compared to the older 1800 lb version of the car while gaining minimal interior volume.
