>Stretched truck tires
Fuck, I can't imagine trying to cheetah those fuckers on there.
>>13981973
A lot of big tires (I count anything over a 35 on a 17 as a big tire) you have to use a ratchet strap around the center to get the sides of the tire pushed to the bead seat. I can't even imagine how big of a pain in the ass these would be.

>>13982398

I'm simply pointing out that 1/2 tons are not designed to maintain reliability over an extended period of time, especially if worked like a truck.
People that use their trucks like trucks know this. People that buy trucks just to be truck owners do not.
>being jealous
Why would I be jealous of an inferior truck? Are you aware of how absurd that sounds?
>projecting
Looks like you're the one projecting your anger and jealousy.
>>13982428
People get 1/2 because they dont need a 3/4 ton. Dads got one for hauling the grill to work when he cooks lunch, the john boat, going hunting, etc. Its almost like there are multiple uses. Weird.
>>13982428
Are you being serious or joking?
1/2 ton is fine for most things that people with trucks do. Hauling shit in the bed, light trailer puller, etc. all the things you can't do with a car.
>>13982448
You'd be surprised comparing 90s full size sedan tow ratings to 90s 1/2 ton pickup tow ratings.
You can easily haul a small trailer in a cheaper vehicle with a better ride, nicer interior, and better economy. And if you've got a trailer, there's your bed.
>>13982441
>Its almost like there are multiple uses.
Considering 90s 1/2 tons are falling apart under their own weight, they're not very good for any of those uses. Many 90s 1/2 ton drivetrain components should have been reserved for 1/4 tons.
What neither of you seem to understand is that heavier duty trucks hold up better under the same conditions. It doesn't matter if you only "need" a 4k tow rating for 3k lbs. A truck rated for 8-10k isn't going to wear out as quickly and will stop that trailer faster. It might matter if there were a significant price difference, but there's not. There is nothing wrong with having more than you think you need. Learn to leave some headroom, kids. It's a good thing, not a bad thing.

There's things you can't do with a car that you can do with a truck.
the ride height, the bed, the torque, yeah try pulling 10klbs with a unibody car and a stock 6" diff. all of our work trucks are ram 1500s and they are nice trucks. you cant haul tools and 2x12s and shit around in a civic.
the amount of shit that you can pack into a truck + trailer doesn't even compare to a car.
when we go to the track we pull a flatbed, with a 2,000 lb car and in the bed tool chest, tires, air, ezup, chairs, cooler. you can't do that with a car.
and your idea that the 2500 is somehow built to a higher standard than the 1500 is ridiculous.
>>13987288
>the ride height
Not a huge deal unless you're wheeling it, in which case you absolutely do not want puny 1/2 ton axles.
>the bed
We already went over this... in the post you just replied to.
Use the trailer.
>the torque
You can get the same exact engines in sedans you get in 1/2 ton trucks...
>10klbs with a unibody car and a stock 6" diff
94 Silverado is only rated around 5k with an 8.5" diff.
94 Caprice has the same diff.
>you cant haul tools and 2x12s and shit around in a civic.
See it all the time working in construction...
>and your idea that the 2500 is somehow built to a higher standard than the 1500 is ridiculous.
You're right. The 1500s, 2500s, and 3500s are all the exact same. Just different badges. There's absolutely nothing on a higher GVWR truck that's built any better or stronger than the parts on a 1/2 ton.
But really, the advantages you're trying to attribute to a 1/2 ton truck over a full size sedan don't apply there, but they do to a 3/4 or 1 ton over a 1/2 ton.
Come at me company owned Ram 1500 fag.
>>13988229
It's pathetic that you're still arguing this.
I don't know if you're stupid as fuck or if you're just being a cunt.
I'm starting believe you're actually just fucking stupid.
>>13988240
>I can't refute a single point you made so I'll just call you names and hope people think I'm right
There's really no reason for this. We're both anonymous, no one can tell us apart. You could literally admit to knowing absolutely nothing and no one could possibly think any less of you even if they wanted to.
>>13988229
10klbs is the towing capacity. it's not the same as GVWR you mongoloid. the fact that youre arguing a family sedan can be as useful as a half ton truck is hilarious.
>>13988253
I can't refute it because it's so fucking stupid.
>ride height only matter if you're wheeling
yeah which is required for a lot of things people in trucks do. hunting, camping, riding, boat ramps, work sites.
>the bed isnt useful because you can just put a trailer on your car
This is the stupidest thing I've ever fucking heard.
>some cars come with the same engines
A small number of american cars come with the same engine yes.
You think GVW and towing capacity are the same thing. Enough said really, but I'll continue with the fact that you're comparing only 1 truck to 1 car. In the 90s no less. No idea why you're even talking about 20 year old cars.
What about the GVW or towing capacity of a Toyota Camry vs 2015 Silverado 1500? How about that Camry transaxle? How about those springs? Totally suited for pulling a boat. Don't worry guys a 1994 chevy caprice still has an 8 inch! Fucking literally useless information.
>See it all the time working in construction...
No you don't. Because I actually work construction and the only people driving cars are laborers.
>there's absolutely nothing on a higher GVWR truck that's built any better
No, there isn't. It's a spring, axle, and frame change. The rest of the truck will be the same quality. The same engineers.
You buy a 3/4 for 3/4 work. You buy a 1/2 ton for 1/2 work.
Please take your Nebraska farmboy bullshit to another board.
>>13988256
>10klbs is the towing capacity. it's not the same as GVWR you mongoloid
5k is the tow rating, not the GVWR. GVWR is somewhere around 6200-6800 depending on configuration.
If implying I don't know GVWR from towing capacity is your best point, you better just move along.
>>13988309
>yeah which is required for a lot of things people in trucks do
So 2WD trucks are just as useless as sedans in your mind?
>you can just put a trailer on your car
You actually pull it behind the car...
>A small number of american cars come with the same engine yes.
A small number of models that make up a huge portion of <$5k cars, which is what the average retard on /o/ can afford.
>2015 Silverado 1500
Most of the retards here don't have $50k to blow on a decently equipped 1/2 ton truck. For someone going on and on about not wanting more than you think you need, you damn sure don't need a 2015. If you WERE to buy a car for even light towing, you probably wouldn't be buying one that's FWD with no official towing capacity. Why would you compare two terrible choices vs two realistic choices?
>only people driving cars are laborers.
Which don't have tools or run to Lowes for materials? You obviously haven't been in construction very long.
>It's a spring, axle, and frame change.
And brakes, transmission, transfer case, more engine options...
>The rest of the truck will be the same quality
Who said anything about subjective build quality? Did I claim 3/4 tons had superior German engineering? No.
They're built with stronger components. Stronger components last longer under the same conditions. This is the exact same concept you're trying to imply with cars vs trucks. For gas trucks more than a few years old, there's often little to no price difference.

>>13988378
I already refuted your points with good replies. The only person here who thinks you aren't an idiot is you. Good luck.
>>13988378
Are you arguing against trucks altogether or just 1/2 tons?
Do you really think a sedan is a replacement for a half ton truck?
>>13988638
He legitimately believes a car is a replacement for a half ton truck. Just laugh and move on. Not worth it.
>>13988638
I'm arguing that if you're buying a truck to use it like a truck, there's no reason to buy a 1/2 ton.
Then this moron starts going on about how 1/2 tons are useful because they can pull light trailers, so I tell him cars can pull light trailers too.
Then he brings up the need for ground clearance, and I assume 4x4. But if that's why 1/2 tons were useful, why would so many be 2WD?
He brings up their usefulness for transporting tools and a few 2x12s. But Civics can do that too.
Then he brought up a 10k lb trailer, which most 1/2 tons aren't even close to being rated for.
I just pointed out that common sedans have capability similar to affordable 1/2 ton trucks.
This guy apparently thinks 3/4 ton badges are only used to designate fleet trucks from POVs.
You obviously understand my point, which is why you upgraded your axles. You didn't NEED the upgraded axles, but you knew they'd hold up better.
>>13988724
He upgraded is axles for wheeling.
My jeep has 1 ton axles in it.. that doesn't change the fact that 1/2 tons have their place and have far more utility than a car.
>>13988724
Some half ton trucks can pull 10,000lbs
It's not 1995 anymore.
>>13981387
>>13981496
At least Angry Ute didn't get posted first.
And not to rain on the parade, but lots of pickups with those tow mirrors piss me off when I'm driving my truck. Most of those dudes don't realize the mirrors stick like 18" off the side of the truck. They will drift into other lanes and I have to swerve so I don't take off their mirrors with my trailer.
>>13988724
I upgraded my axles because a Chry 8.25 will not hold up to 426 ft/lb of V10 torque.
If you really think a sedan is a replacement for a 1/2 ton truck tow a 3500 lb car on a 1000 lb trailer plus a few hundred pounds of motorcycle over several mountain passes. I did this several times before upgrading the drivetrain on my Ram and anything less would not have made it up those passes.
I have pulled a car on that trailer with my Jeep [which has a 5000lb tow rating] and there is NO WAY it would make it up those passes, even with plenty of torque to be had.
The 1/2 ton segment has a place. It's the midsize trucks that don't really belong anywhere.
>>13988754
>It's not 1995 anymore
Previous trucks still on the road don't get uprated to 2015 standards just because a 2015 can tow more.
>>13988770
>I upgraded my axles because a Chry 8.25 will not hold up to 426 ft/lb of V10 torque.
And 8.5s don't hold up to daily driving. The axle wasn't designed for towing, hence why putting tow mirrors on a truck that has one is fucking retarded.
>If you really think a sedan is a replacement for a 1/2 ton truck tow a 3500 lb car on a 1000 lb trailer plus a few hundred pounds of motorcycle over several mountain passes.
If that's what you're planning on using a truck for, you shouldn't be buying a 1/2 ton to do it.
>>13988834
>If that's what you're planning on using a truck for, you shouldn't be buying a 1/2 ton to do it.
That is why the 1/2 ton segment exists. I wasn't towing things every day but made several heavy trips with the truck that could not have been done with a lesser vehicle. It would have been easier to tow with a 3/4 ton truck but for the rest of the time I drive it I have a softer ride, slightly better mpg, a short wheelbase, and paid probably 20k less for the truck new than I would for a 3/4 ton.
>>13988875
>buying within your rational means
Nothing wrong with this. Anti-bro-trucker hi five.
>>13988834
By that logic, why get a 3/4 ton when you can get a full ton? Why get either when you can get a semi tractor? They're a lot more capable at towing than the wanna be pick up truck.... Right faggot?
>>13988875
>and paid probably 20k less for the truck new than I would for a 3/4 ton
2015 Ram Tradesman crew cab short bed there's a $670 difference between 1500 and 2500. Where are you getting $20k?
The 1500 is rated to tow 6780 lbs, the 2500 11,510 lbs.
>>13988907
