I appreciate the advice, but I'm not buying a dually. I don't want to deal with parking it downtown, parking it in the garage, dealing with another set of tires, the cost, etc etc. I'm just not into it. I am not a full time RVer- not yet anyway. Frankly I don't even need a 250 in daily life, but I will concede - sort of meeting the middle. In the few days of looking around there seem to be plenty smaller/lighter FW's that would meet our needs and meet the specs of the 250. If I were full timing and needed a larger FW, sure, but that's not the case. I just don't need that much truck or that much RV.
On edit: I am starting to catch on so some of my answers are simply ignorance. I am in new territory here. The F350 is basically the same size and close to cost as the F250, but with greater capacity correct? It just occurred to me the the SRW and DRW mean single and dual rear wheels. An "Aha" moment. SO I would not be opposed to a F350 single rear wheel. If I understand things correctly. I appreciate everyone's patience as I educate myself. BTW - it has to be a Ford. I have had my 07 F150 since new and while it has had issues, it's still running smooth with 250k on it. Ford has earned another shot at my next truck.
You are now on the track I tried to get you on early in the thread! Great!!! Chris
