My dad would be 94 now, and to him pickups came in two sizes, 1/2, 3/4, ton.

A 1 ton is a 1 ton, flatbed or pickup bed, it's a 1 ton.

Trucks were 1 1/2 ton and larger.

All pickups and trucks had a bowtie or GMC on the grill or a Detroit Diesel under the hood.

Being the utilitarian he was, everything else was a waste of money.
