Mules are slightly smaller than their horse parent, and when they grow they share traits of both a donkey (the long ears), and the horse (color, tail, etc.). A Mule in the grass.
For example, a 2014 Ford F-150 is considered a half ton truck but most variants can carry a lot more than 1,000 pounds in the bed. Since these terms are probably not going away any time soon, it's best just to think of them as smaller, mediumest, and more than medium.. (Pause for laughter).
considering that a gross ton is 2240 lbs to calculate how much our pricing is per pound divide our current steel prices by 2240 for example if our current steel shred price is $ 224 gross ton you would divide that by 2240 to get 1 or $ 0 10 lbell yes and no we weigh and pay our scrap steel based on a gross ton which is 2240 pounds and often referred to as a long ton the ton we learn about in school is actually a net ton and is in fact 2000 pounds this is also commonly referres to as a short ton
