Customers may demand more (or at least the appearance of more), but that doesn't mean they need or use it. Just like the aerodynamic benefits of the tailfins on a '59 Cadillac :-)

Not saying it's reasonable, just saying that is the reality. There's a reason your Toyota is an '88 model, and not the current model, as customers wouldn't stand for your vehicle today.
Truck commercials are always touting the power, payload and tow ratings. Consumers might settle for a truck that is
as powerful as the previous year
and is more fuel efficient, but they certainly won't accept something that is less powerful and less capable than the previous year.
