People who don’t use their car professionally hardly need to tow anything in their day to day lives. And payload, the most cargo that they haul would be luggage for family vacations or the weeks groceries, and then, protected cargo space is more important, because you don’t want your luggage or groceries to be lost or stolen. These trucks have this cover that can be placed on top of the truck bed, but that limits cargo space to less than a stationwagon.
There’s “smaller” trucks available, they’re just the same size as an early '00s full size
And basically the same price as the full size, but you have to special order.
“Got it, we’ll make the full sizes even bigger and more expensive”

Except they don’t have the same bed size as those early '00s full size trucks.
But not as capable in terms of payload and towing capacity, if you need that.
