It's not likely I'll ever have to prove it and throw 3 tons of crap in the back anyway!

Note: Over time, trucks have become bigger and stronger. For example, a "half-ton" pickup truck by today's standards may be capable of carrying up to a ton. Designations such as half ton, three-quarter ton etc. are nominal ratings and are currently only used to describe the general size of a pickup – not its weight-carrying capacity.
