How many tons can a half ton truck carry?

Answer 1

1,000 pounds

Answer 2

"Half ton truck" is an informal (i.e. the name is unregulated) class of vehicles that can carry a payload of at least 1000 pounds but not more than 2000 pounds. Actual payload capacity varies among models. For example, when Popular Mechanics compared five 2009 pickup trucks in that class, they found the following payload capacities: Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie Crew 4x4 -- 1178 pounds payload (0.59 ton) Ford F-150 Supercrew Lariat 4x4 -- 1279 pounds payload (0.64 ton) Toyota Tundra Crewmax SR5 4x4 -- 1362 pounds payload (0.68 ton) Chevrolet Silverado Crew Cab LTZ 4x4 --- 1504 pounds payload (0.75 ton) Nissan Titan Pro-4x 4x4 -- 1728 pounds payload (0.86 ton) So payload varied from 59% of a ton to 86% of a ton in this competitive grouping.

Answer 3

One ton is 2,000 pounds, therefore, half a ton would equal 1,000 pounds.

Answer 4

1000 Lbs is a half ton.

2000 lbs is 1 ton. So 2000 / 2 = 1000.

Answer 5

1000 lbs

1 US (short) ton = 2000 lb

1 UK (long) ton = 2240 lb

1 tonne (metric) = 2204.6 lb
