Passenger car tires usually max out at around 35 psig, light truck tires usually max out at around 44, heavy truck tires (like the ones used on an F-250 or 1 ton truck or superduty) take gobs of pressure like described above. They are also way more expensive and heavier.

So no, not all trucks take that kind of pressure, only the big heavy ones.
