Thus the point of shutters (which I "think" may have been missed by a reader or two of this thread, or on this subject).

Folks look at pickup trucks from the aspect of mpg and the size + increased weight is ascribed to "heavy duty" this and that. Really, it's the cooling capacity..

There used to be more overlap, but even today, the drivetrains that can be found in both cars & trucks differ mainly by this (despite specific tuning).
