The F150 is the only American pickup that's had such bloat growth. RAM and GM's Siverado/Sierra twins have grown nowhere near as much as the F150.
I wish I could find hood heights for the various years of pickups, but that measurement seems not to be done anywhere. My '03 Silverado, 2wd, has a hood that measures 43" to the top leading edge of the hood....about the level of my navel when I'm standing in front of the truck. I've stood in front of current F150's and the hood height is much higher. The overall height of the trucks seems to have remained fairly constant (all three US truck lines in 2wd form have overall heights around 73"-74"), but the hoods/grilles have grown higher with smaller windshields to compensate.
As a comparison, the 2014 Silverado, reg. cab, short box, 2wd....
Wheelbase....119"
Length.....205.57"
Width.....80"
First gen. Silverado ('99-'07)
Wheelbase....119"
Length.....203"
Width.....78.5"
