I take back what I said earlier, it was less than ten years ago that 250/2500 trucks had the same GVWR of this Titan XD.
2010 Ford F250 5.4L GVWR 8,800 lbs
2013 Ram 2500 5.7L GVWR 8,800 lbs
2010 Chevy 2500HD 6.0 GVWR 8,500 lbs <--- this one is technically a "1/2 ton" since it is below 8,501
Depends upon YOUR definition of a half ton, or what "I" would call a class 1 truck. Since over 6001 lbs, it is a class 2 or 3/4 ton! Along with a LOT of 15/half ton badged trucks frankly.
I believe the split between an HD and LD class 2 is 8400, not 8500, but I could be wrong.

The split is at 8,500 and 8,501.
