Is an F-150 a half-ton?

While we’ve all heard the term half-ton truck before, if you’re like many, it may be unclear as to what that really means. So what does it mean to be a half-ton truck? Half-ton is a classification that refers to the payload capacities of trucks and varies between half-ton, three-quarter-ton, and one-ton trucks.

What is considered a 1 ton truck?

NEWS Pickup trucks | Cars.com photo by Evan Sears By Joe Bruzek September 1, 2016 CARS.COM Q: What does half-ton, three-quarter-ton, one-ton, etc., mean when talking about full-size pickups? A: Half-ton, three-quarter-ton and one-ton are classifications for pickup trucks and SUVs that are used to generally classify them by their payload capacities, meaning the maximum weight a pickup or SUV can carry in its cargo and passenger areas.

Payload is not just what’s in the pickup bed, it also includes all the people and stuff the truck is carrying, as well as the trailer tongue weight. Although tonnage designations used to correspond to a truck’s payload capacity, they now are little more than a casual way of classifying these trucks. As a refresher, traditionally a ton is 2,000 pounds, meaning a half-ton truck would have a 1,000 pound payload, three-quarter tons are rated to 1,500 pounds, and one-ton trucks can carry 2,000 pounds of payload.

Actual vehicle payloads are far higher, but we’ll get to that in a moment. Related: Get the Latest Truck News at PickupTrucks.com The best-selling half-ton pickup class — also known as light-duty pickups — includes the Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500,

• The Nissan Titan and Toyota Tundra also qualify as half-ton pickup trucks.
• These are the most common pickup trucks, ones sold by the millions every year.
• The three-quarter-ton class includes the Ford Super Duty F-250, Ram 2500, Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and GMC Sierra 2500,
• These are sometimes referred to as the 2500 series pickup trucks.

Toyota does not offer a heavy-duty truck, and the Nissan Titan is different in that it has something the brand calls a Titan XD, which is more capable than a light-duty half-ton truck, but less than a heavy-duty three-quarter-ton pickup truck. Typically these trucks have an automatic transmission and are diesel-powered, but may also offer big gasoline engines.

• At the top of the scale are one-ton pickup trucks, like the Ford Super Duty F-350, Ram 3500, Chevrolet Silverado 3500 and GMC Sierra 3500.
• Neither Toyota nor Nissan offer one-ton trucks.
• These are the biggest pickups typically sold through consumer dealers — anything bigger, and you’re starting to look at pickup trucks aimed at commercial buyers, sold through special dealerships.

Now the confusing part: The classifications grossly underrate the true payloads of these trucks. For instance, the half-ton class is actually capable of around three-quarters of a ton of payload. Three-quarter-ton trucks may carry more than a ton and a half, and one-ton trucks have been known to safely haul more than twice that.

The trucks’ published payload rating and/or gross vehicle weight rating are the only way to know how much weight a specific truck can carry. Higher classes and payloads are made possible by heavier frames and stronger suspensions, brakes, engines, or a combination thereof. This beefier construction helps a lot in towing a trailer as well, with tow ratings that easily outperform the lesser light-duty pickups.

The downside is that they get poorer fuel economy and are more trucklike in their performance as their capabilities increase. They are more challenging to drive (and park), given that they are physically larger than half-ton trucks. Cars.com’s Editorial department is your source for automotive news and reviews.

Does the F-150 EcoBoost require premium gas?

Choosing the Right Fuel Your vehicle is designed to operate on regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. Some fuel stations, particularly those in high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating below 87.

• The use of these fuels could result in engine damage that will not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
• For best overall vehicle and engine performance, premium fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher is recommended.
• The performance gained by using premium fuel is most noticeable in hot weather as well as other conditions, for example when towing a trailer.

See Towing, Do not be concerned if the engine sometimes knocks lightly. However, if the engine knocks heavily while using fuel with the recommended octane rating, contact an authorized dealer to prevent any engine damage. We recommend Top Tier detergent gasolines, where available to help minimize engine deposits and maintain optimal vehicle and engine performance.

Diesel fuel.Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.Fuel containing more than 15% ethanol or E85 fuel.Fuels containing methanol.Fuels containing metallic-based additives, including manganese-based compounds.Fuels containing the octane booster additive, methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is prohibited by law.

The use of fuels with metallic compounds such as methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (commonly known as MMT), which is a manganese-based fuel additive, will impair engine performance and affect the emission control system.

• This feature leads to better fuel economy and more efficient everyday use, so you can save fuel for when you need it the most.
• Drivers who want an alternative fuel option might enjoy the 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 hybrid engine.
• With the highest city and combined mpg of all F-150 options, this 6-cylinder engine offers an opportunity to save money on fuel and spend more time on the road.

With a hybrid engine, you can drive the F-150 for up to 700 miles on one tank of fuel, and you can use it to support an onboard generator for work or play.
