I am trying to do some research, and am wondering how they determine a vehicles tonnage.
Like the F-250 is 3/4 ton I belive, stuff like that.
Thanks!

For each series of Chevy and GMC pickups, General Motors builds a different degree of strength into the frame, springs, suspension, engine, brakes, tires and wheels - all the things that support, move and stop the weight the truck is carrying.
Note: Over time, trucks have become bigger and stronger. For example, a "half-ton" pickup truck by today's standards is really capable of carrying more than a ton. These weights are nominal ratings and are currently only used to describe the general strength of a pickup - not its weight-carrying capacity.
