Sam I think it is more about how modern truck "owners" have changed rather than the laws.
These laws (for the most part) were made years and years ago.
If I think back to my early 20's or teens (I am over 50) I can not remember one private person owning a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. Yes business; a farmer; or someone that did a lot of hauling stuff might have one but no private owners. Heck they made 4 door pickups back then but the only place that I can remember that had one was the city water/sewerage department. No private driver would be caught dead in a 4 door pickup.
Now look around today. Everyone needs a 4 door pickup that can not only pull a 5th wheel camper; it can pull a load of jet skies; 4 wheeler's; or boat; behind the camper at the same time. And some of them do not even own a camper or a boat. They just got some $60,000 pickup to show off to the neighbors.
Modern truck laws just have not kept up with the times.
