I ask because my Tundra has a payload of 1600-1800 lbs (depending on what you read). That makes it a 3/4 ton pickup in my mind. I've been hauling 1600 lbs at least once a week since I bought mine new. And there's no issues (other than one wheel bearing self-destructing at 89k).
This is a serious question, not a post to incite a riot.
thanks
To be clear, your truck is not a 3/4ton, its payload ratings are about half of todays 3/4ton trucks.
