I don't get how it's safe for a pickup to have a hood at my eye level

  The original was about cars, not pickups. For pickups the standard was magazines started pulling the max weight trailers up pikes peak (a long steep grade) on a hot day with the AC on (I was going to write at the speed limit, but I suspect they are going faster than legal speed just like everyone else). Without those large grills there isn't enough cooling and the engine will overheat forcing you to slow down. Older trucks could handle this grade and drivers just slowed down a bit - which is the safer thing to do anyway. (either that or you should have a semi-truck - including the additional training required to drive one)
