Cargo capacity aside, the biggest difference between passenger vehicles and big rigs is focus. Work trucks are meant to haul as much stuff as possible as cheaply and reliably as possible, while passenger vehicles are about "image" and a cushy ride.
If I had a long-haul freight truck, I wouldn't second guess the engineers on efficiency. But your average, run of the mill car is a sloppy POS designed to be cute or manly or whatever. Mod the hell out of it.
