what defines a 3/4 ton?
If it's payload capacity, then why isn't a properly equipped F150 considered a 3/4 ton truck?

Forget marketing badges, they change willynilly to suite marketing chasing whatever is selling
Best to use real numbers, and that is arguable
GVWR, GAWR are what I look for
"Half ton" rear GAWR tops out around 5,000 lbs (7 lug wheels and what I refer to as fake half ton). Most in the 4,000 range
There are other attributes (8 lug wheels, bigger frame, etc) but the RGAWR is my main determination
