Big Parking Spots for Trucks

The most popular vehicles in the world are pickup trucks, so why are parking spaces so small?
I drive a Ford F-150 Pickup Truck. It's been the biggest selling vehicle in the world for over 40 year straight. It outsells not only every truck, but every car, SUV, or minivan, yet with all those pickups out there, why is it so hard to find a parking lot with decent sized spots?
It's hard enough for people to squeeze into those little spots with small cars, let along full-sized pickups like the F-150, so you have to wonder why they don't at least make SOME larger spots.
I realize they are simply trying to jam as many cars into the lot as possible, but for what it's worth, they're losing business because sometimes people with trucks have no choice but to leave when they can't find a decent spot.
The solution is simple. I think every parking lot should set aside a certain percentage of their spots specifically for larger vehicles. They don't need to be near the front, but they should at least have some larger spots.
