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?

Modern 3500/350 DRW trucks are limited to 14,000 GVWR. The trucks capacity is WELL beyond that now. BUT the licensing and insurance rates keep them within that number.
Simply math will tell you the trucks capability. My UNLOADED front axle weight is about 5,250# simply add the SAE RAWR of 9,750# to that. HMMMMM 15,000# how can it be that it's OVER 14,000 GVWR??????
So y'all that are on the "Sky is Falling" side when it comes to GVWR there are the facts.
Simply license that sucker to what the tires are carrying and enjoy the ride.
