Because it is a truck, why?

Driving a truck is nothing unusual to me since I have done it in the last 10
years. From previous Ford Bronco to the 2004 Sequoia.
One thing I still do not understand is that truck like to get warm up more a
car.

I meant the truck does not move at the first few pump of gas while car picks
up right away. I am comparing Accord, T&C van and the Sequoia. How come
the truck needs start and wait for a few minutes or seriously step on
accelerator several times before feeling the horse power?

What's the design difference between these two types of vehicle?

Re: Because it is a truck, why?

bigger motor, more metal, more oil, more water that needs to heat up.
Maybe thicker oil.
Truck is heavier and you will notice more if the motor doesnt have full
power.

NO motor LIKES to get pushed while cold. Modern motors will mind less.
