Techniquely speaking from the federal truck stds,
up to 6000 gvwr is a class 1
6001-8400 is a ld class 2
8401-10000 is a HD class 2
10001-13.5K? is a class 3
13.5-16.5 class 4
16501-19500 class 5
19501-26K is class 6
not going into 7 and 8.......needless to say, yes, a 35 badged rig with a less than 10K gvwr would be considerd a class 2, or 3/4 ton style truck. Even my 89 GM duallie, with a 10K rating per GM back then, was a class 2, as its gvwr was not over 10001!
