If it's the same one I'm thinking of, a couple/few of the biggest trucks have less visibility than an M1-A1 Abrams TANK......

To be fair I'm pretty sure Abrams (and most other modern western tanks) have really good driver's/commander's sights compared to any vehicle at all

I'm talking the old version that didn't have the fancy helmets to see through the tank. The commander may have some good sights, but the drivers didn't.
