The M35 Series of trucks was developed for the US Army in 1949 to replace the M135 series of trucks and subsequently utilized by many nations around the world. The M35 truck is in the 2 1/2 ton weight class and is one of many vehicles in US military service to have been referred to as the "deuce and a half."

The basic M35 cargo truck can carry 5000 pounds across country or 10,000 pounds over roads, and have been known to haul twice as much as rated.

The M35 series was used by United States in Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Many are still in use by US National Guard and Army Reserve Units but are being replaced by the Light Medium Tactical Vehicle.
