to calculate ton on a vehicle i am assuming you are talking about how to calculate the weight that can be loaded to a vehicle
first drive unloaded vehicle to scales and have it weighed
this will give u an unladen weight
you then find the goss vehical weight(gvw) that is usually on a tag somewhere near a door of vehicle and also on registration papers
you the subtrat enpty weight ,eg 17000 lbs, from gross weight,80.000 lbs
this will give you your tare weight (load weight) 63000 lbs
63000 lbs converted to tons is 31.5
so you can load 31.5 tons onto tht vehicle
the gvw includes all all load and trappings(tarps,tiedowns,etc) fuel and passengers
