Some of it has to do with CAFE standards using vehicle footprint to determine the target MPG. Some of it is because of better safety standards. Some of it is just because that’s what a certain portion of the market wants, and the profit margins on the large vehicles are higher, so they spend more money marketing them (creating more demand).

gotta love when the funny regulations do the opposite of what you expect them to do.
Yeah, a lot of the regulations are written by the industries they’re supposed to regulate.
