Pulling a 30' 5th wheel

Is a dually really needed to pull a 5th wheel over a Single Rear Wheel truck?
I know many of you have dually's and say that's the way to go, but what are the pro's and con's with dually's and single rear wheel truck's?
I was looking at a 2008 F350 SRW with a 6.4L diesel, and was wondering if I would go wrong with this truck?

    I would check the weight ratings for the truck first. But to answer your question I tow my 42' 14k loaded 5er with a Ram 3500 with short bed single wheel. No issues what so ever. Very stable as well. Have also pulled with a dually but can only tell difference going on highways down hill into a turn.
