The average weight of passenger and commercial vehicles has varied over time. The pickup truck, which is America’s best-selling vehicle style, has bulked up considerably since the mid-1970s. As of 2024, the pickup truck has an average weight increase of 30% from 1975. Other vehicle styles, such as sedans and wagons, have slimmed down by 10%.

That’s vehicles classified as “light duty” — pickup trucks.
All other vehicle classes are down in curb weight over that same period.
Another issue is that more people are buying “light duty” vehicles…
It’s infuriating. The number of trucks with their ass hanging out of driveways and parking spots is a legitimate public safety emergency.
And it’s probably worse than that graph seems to show… Since people are moving to a larger vehicle class mostly due to marketing rather than use case…
Yeah, show us the average numbers for all vehicles used for private personal transport then.
