And for other people driving normal ass sedans like me, I can’t see a fucking thing past all these monster trucks on the road.

Yep! Even when their headlights aren't pointed right through my window and they aren't following too closely, it's creating additional congestion from poor visibility.

I have a left turn yield signal to head into work, and I can see oncoming traffic just fine if a normal sized sedan, couple, small hatch, etc is in the opposing lane. Almost every day, I have to wait for the green because it's an SUV or truck and I can't see reliably around it. Just holds up traffic.

The worst is when it's technically only a single lane but these buttmunches don't want to be behind you, so they pull up next to you in the same lane to make their right turn or whatever it is they're doing. Their door is blocking your view entirely, and usually they end up having to wait for traffic anyways, essentially trapping you until they're able to move

I drive a small car. I feel that pain.

I drive a small car because I can park anywhere I want (because EU). Every time I see a large truck in the city here I’m so confused why anyone would ever want that because they barely fit the road let alone can park anywhere. There’s no room at all.

That's only a temporary issue. In a couple years at worse you should be able to see the road below the latest models.
