1000
1500 trucks are 1/2 ton, 2500 trucks are 3/4 ton, 3500 trucks are 1 ton. The differences are hauling/towing capabilities. Granted 2500's and 3500's have more powerful engines, a 1500 can be made into a 2500 with few modifications.
The standard Chevrolet blazer towing capacity is 1500 pounds. Some Chevrolet Blazers from the 1980s had a towing capacity of 2500 pounds.
The 1500 has a towing capacity of 8100 lbs in 4WD, or 8400 with two-wheel drive. 2500 models can tow up to 12,000 lbs.
1500 is a 1/4 ton, 2500 is a 1/2 ton.
