Ford commercial dealers rate commercial vehicles in eight different classes, including:

  • Class 1 – 3 (Light Duty Vehicles): These are typically lightweight and non-commercial vehicles like minivans, SUVs, cargo vans, and pickup trucks for light deliveries or passenger transport.
  • Class 4 – 6 (Medium Duty Trucks): These trucks typically have a GVWR of 14,000 to 26,000 lbs, including Ford box trucks, delivery trucks, and certain utility trucks.
  • Class 7 – 8 (Heavy Duty Trucks): Heavier trucks with GVWRs between 26,000 and 33,000 lbs can include buses, semi-trailers, and tractor-trailers.
