This 1/2 ton vs 3/4 or 1 ton debate will never die.
Seeing is believing though....
Park a 150/1500 next to a 250/2500 (or a 350/3500). Then take a look undeirneath them, comparing the suspensions and drive train.
I have done that very thing with my 1500 and many 250/2500's were less stout, less capable hauling and towing.
My only point is go by the specification, not the numbers on the side. Some 150/1500's don't approach 1/2 ton capability, some twice that. Same with the 3/4 and 1 ton.
You cannot make assumptions based on badges, you have to study the full specs.
