Answer:

The small car and the truck experience the same average force.

Explanation:

The average net force will be the resultant force of the average forces of both vehicles. On collision, they'll both experience the same impact force, but the deceleration and deformation felt by the individual vehicle will be proportional to the mass of the vehicle. This is why it will seem like the car will have more force but is not actually so.
