Dualie vs SRW benefits?
Hey guys, I have been looking at the F350 for a 5th wheel I will be buying and I am confused about SRW / DRW. According to the towing weight / GCWR, there is only about 500lb difference between SRW...

I tow a 12,000 lb. (loaded and wet) fiver with single rear-axle long bed F350 and am well-pleased with the towing characteristics. I am not bothered by trucks passing. The GCWR is 3,700 lbs, but that is adequate for this trailer.
A SRW can go through bank drive-throughs and drive-through car washes. I don't think that is true of DWR trucks.
With a longer and heaver trailer I would no doubt need a DRW.
I'm almost the same with my 5W and SRW F350, never had and issue with stability. I do find I end up parking it the back 40 at most places we shop. The CCLB is long and does not fit in most painted parking stalls, DRW would be worse.
