1 Ton Pickup Trucks For Sale in Canada

About 1-Ton Pickup Trucks

The first pickups were created in 1913 when the Galion Allsteel Body Company of Galion, Ohio, began to do aftermarket conversions of Ford Model Ts to include hauling boxes. As of 2022, about 24% of all new vehicles sold in Canada in a year's time were pickup trucks, according to Driving.ca.

Pickup trucks are often categorized by their payload and towing capacities, such as 1/2-ton, 3/4-ton, and 1-ton. These designations, which were once directly tied to the difference between a truck’s weight and its gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), are today used more as general descriptors to help consumers differentiate between trucks’ capabilities. 

1-ton pickups are a common sight on commercial construction sites, road construction projects, farms and ranches, and other jobsites that require lots of heavy equipment and materials hauled and/or towed in. 

1-Ton Pickup Features & Configurations

1-ton pickups often come with many of the features contractors and other professionals need to haul heavy loads, including single or dual rear wheels, powerful turbo-diesel engines, fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitches, and trailer brake and taillight connections, as well as numerous high-tech trailer assist features that make hitching up and towing easier.
