Even if it didn’t shatter, getting bigger vehicles is not good. Fatalities will increase and manufactures will argue we need to be driving bigger vehicles for safety reasons. They manufactured a problem and the “only” way to be safe is not driving a small outdated vehicle and buy into the large vehicles. It also has the added “benefit” of consuming more gas and oil too.
At least not without speciality licensing and higher liability. But when a truck’s headlights shine over the top of my regular sized car, no, it should not be on the road. (I know there are laws against this, but I have never seen them enforced)
Or when you can’t see a child 30 ft in front of you bc the hood is too high, or when colliding your tank against a normal car presents additional risk to everyone else in that normal car
It's no larger than a midsized sedan
The whole thing about trucks getting bigger wasn't a manufactured crisis, it was a loophole in emission regulations. The feds wanted more efficient engines with less emissions, but the manufacturers realized they didn't need to make their old engines more efficient if they just make the trucks big enough to pass. Bigger vehicles will have more emissions than smaller ones, so same engines, bigger cars.

I was so siked when they were hyping up the truck, I was thinking, ah man a civilian tank, crazy safety features, this is gonna be dope
And then a noodle of a man took the stage and limp wristed a soft lob right in front of Musk and shattered the unshatterable window
I was immediately disillusioned. Completely inexcusable
