Well you see the larger size of American cars means they have larger crumple zones.

So in an accident the person reading their phone will most likely not kill me as they drive into me headfirst.

The grill on these trucks are literally head height.

In conventional car design, you will be hit, you'll roll over the hood and off the roof of the car. You'll definitely break your legs but you might survive.

In a truck (and often, it has a bullbar) you are getting smacked by a 7tonne wall of steel to the face. The only thing that's crumpling is your skull.
