used to be....
in the 60s it was a f100 and carried 1000 lbs in the bed so it matched up pretty well as a half ton truck. In the 1970s a 5/8 ton became a selling point initially as a camper special by chevrolet iirc.. and finnally all f100s were drop and became f150s. So now the basic truck is a f150 c15 as it were. the 250's could be option basic or hd in the 70s especially with the introduction of diesels so a f250 could be option from 3/4 of ton payload to1.75 tons of payload. As the diesel wars played out, 250s and 350s each year carried more and more to win the selling wars to the point that they no longer represent the half, threequarter and one ton anymore.
In 1985 a f250 diesel had the same springs and frame as a gas model f350. Due to the heavier engine and torque increase you got the 350 payload by simply ordering a 250 diesel.
