If function were a priority at all for pickup trucks they would have stubby sloped noses like Sprinter vans have. But no, they need to have massively elongated and elevated hoods because the vast, overwhelming majority are sold exclusively as penis prosthetics.

It’s comical how empty the engine bay is under those stupid hoods. On Rams with the V6 I can literally stand on the ground in between the radiator and the front end of the engine and still have room to move around.
