Towing Heavy 5er with SRW Truck
I personally don't as my unit is 11k dry. I see a lot of SRW diesel trucks (newer models which I know handle more than older ones) towing huge 5th wheels or toy haulers. Any of you have a setup ...

I have towed with both and noticed no difference in stability. Both had 1 ton suspensions. DRW does allow you to haul more weight over the rear axle, thats the reason for getting DRW.
I towed the same 16,000# 5er through the mountains of NC, TN and WV, some on secondary mountainous curvy roads, and I COULD tell a difference in stability, when cornering on some of the curves that you can go , "up and down and all around" on some of the secondary roads in NC, TN, VA and WV....Seems those 4 tires and wide stance provides for a more stable load shift especially when cornering at speed, like transversing "the gorge" on I 40 from Asheville to TN border....., but maybe I'm just dreaming:)
