ericlb said: (quoted from post at 08:33:11 09/05/11) it might be several reasons, with all the modern "improvements" that newer trucks have in designe and horsepower, a new 1/2 ton will do what a 3/4 ton used to do, also from pictures ive seen over there the country is more settled and the places are not as far apart as out here in the american west, [ there are still places here where one can drive 100 miles and not see anyone except other cars] also a larger 3/4 or 1 ton may or may not be concidered a "truck" and taxed differently too , as for me, i prefer trucks from the 80;s and earlier, easy to work on parts are everywhere, cheap and reliable, no computers to cause problems at the worst possible time, like 40 miles out in the boonies, ect
