Out on a limb here - I read somewhere that all of our pickups, regardless of marketing terms "Heavy Duty", "Super Duty", etc., are light duty vehicles. Medium duty would be a GMC Kodiak (I think), Ram 5500's (I think I've seen these used by our municipal works department). Heavy duty are the OTR tractors (Volvo, Kenworth, Petes, et.)
I'm interested in the electrical question because I switch off T/H to save fuel on the flats.
I agree and think you are correct. The problem is the manufacturers themselves. My owner's manual talks about 'heavy duty' this and 'heavy duty' that...which refers to the pickups that are all within the "light duty" overall category when looking at the big picture.
