    You got some special edition yards or something?

    A cubic meter is 30% more than a cubic yard, meters are longer than yards.

    A tonne (metric) is 1000kg, about 2200 pounds. A ton, often called a short ton, is 2000 pounds. A long ton is 2240 pounds. A long ton is 1.6% more than a metric ton.

      Considering the insane mathematical conversions you people have to constantly do, I wonder why the USA isn’t full of mathematical geniuses?
      Ah right, because scientists use metric.

      Yeah I was backwards, but either way if you’re estimating in units of “truck beds”, they’re close enough to be interchangeable.
