In addition to the crash related bit:

In the US, MPG allowed is tied to the foot print of the wheelbase and track.

This is why a Porsche 911 Turbo is huge, and this is also why pickup trucks are huge.
If you want a lot of ponies, you have to put it in a big package.

Without the EPA regulations you might see smaller lighter trucks.
