The locking cams rarely fail if used properly (unless they are old HF models). But they can be misused by raising the stand under the car and getting it lodged between clicks, which can somewhat hold the weight of the car - until it doesn't.
The locking pins of the better model guard against that and won't even go in unless the top part is in the correct position.

If you don't mind the question, what would you recommend for an SUV \ mini van? TIA!

Though a pair of stands only hold up a portion of the vehicle, since you don't know how that weight is distributed, my rule of thumb is to use stands rated for the total curb weight. So, unless you need the extra lift height that larger stands often provide, these should be fine for minivans and all but the largest of SUVs. And I'd definitely go with the double locking ones.
keep in mind jack stands are rated in pairs unless stated otherwise. ie 2 jack stands for the 3 ton capacity on level ground.
you do not need locking pins, as long as you inspect your jacks, load appropriately and on level [ish] ground. of course, I would take locking pins over not having them. you should leave your jack and/or extra cribbing under the frame/ dig/or other rated lifting location as no sole lifting point is ever safe. hell even two can fail. point is to allow you to get from under the vehicle safely and in 1 piece even in failure.
3 Ton will hold the front OR vack axles of nearly any residential vehicle loaded or unloaded bar the heavier recreation vehicles obviously. ie most 1500 pickups will have 4000 pound ish axles max differentials. while these trucks will likely haul 7500 to 9k safely occasionally when babied illegally, empty you'll see the whole vehicle sitting around 4500 to 5500 pounds [for 2000ish and later]. just as a comparison.
when in doubt buy some 6x6 or 8x8, hell bigger if you can carry it, posts and use them as blocking. while I have heavy duty equipment jack stands, etc, I'll sooner support a 50 ton machine with adequate wood blocking than rely solely on a stand, depending on orientation.
in for a set of locking pins. $24 is pretty cheap for something that gets thrown around a lot.

Use ramps when you can. I've had these jacks stands for years. When using jack stands I ALWAYS stack some 4 x 4 and 6 x 6 scrape wood (usually on top and in the middle of old car rims) under the frame of the car for extra peace of mind. I also keep my floor jack in place under the car as well when I can.

I have a set of 6ton with pins for my two cars and Tahoe. Feel confident in those although you will need a longer jack for the cars as the minimum height of the jack stand is pretty high.

If you're wondering, the $23 version does NOT have the safety pins, while the $24 model DOES have the safety pins.

Of course, not all fabrications will perform equally, but it's important to note that there is some factor of safety involved in the design.
Cheers!
