Use the jack only to get a vehicle off the ground, never to hold a vehicle in place.
Use jack stands when you work underneath your vehicle. People have been crushed to death when vehicles that were improperly secured fell on them.
Never jack up a vehicle without blocking the wheels to keep it from rolling. Use bricks, wooden wedges, or metal wheel chocks to block the wheels at the end of the car that isn't being raised................... https://www.dummies.com/home-gard...r-vehicle/
Please don't. At that point you're safer just using the stock jack from the trunk. Besides, toting around a 40lb+ floor jack for the rare chance of a flat tire is total overkill.
Speaking of overkill, don't even imagine a dense piece of sharp steel flying around the cabin in an accident...

It's fine. They carry several small pieces of 2x4 and it will work great with that.

If my SUV has a kerb weight of 3 tons, will one of these 3-ton SUV jacks be enough? Ride height is adjustable, so not really worried about how much clearance the jack can provide

yes and NO
if you are parked on an incline or slope ANY 3 ton car can overwhelm a 2 ton jack if you are lifting from the low side
to be safe (remember you do not get to pick when and where you need a jack) GET THE 3 TON i posted or ANY 3 ton
