There are those who keep insisting that you must have a dually for stability. Just ain't so. I have no stability issues at all with my F350 SRW and high profile 35' 5er even in high cross winds, passing trucks, and winding roads.
OK, I have thought over your comments, regarding SRW v DRW, I have driven both, although I have only towed my 5th wheel with a SRW. As for your challenge, "drive a DRW with your rig before claiming a SRW will do as good", (Yes I am paraphrasing). Well I have a challenge for you DRW guys, Have you towed your rig with a SRW? I still think the stability you claim for a DRW is psychological!
Yes I have, AND ONLY on mountainous curvy roads with one ess turn after ess turn, some in NC, TN, VA and WV. Nothing "psychological " about it all when my wife stated it felt more stable...BUT, she DID marry me almost 46, years ago, so maybe your insinuations are correct, my wife and I are both PSYCHO,!...So , I guess you're right.. I don't know for sure because according to you, any dually owner who states the dually affords a more stable towing experience is either a liar, or psychologically deranged......
