Truck Dually Wheels
After looking at one ton trucks with dually wheels, I prefer the one ton trucks with single rear wheels. What would I be giving up not getting the dually wheels?

Go to the manufacturers website for that truck model and look at the specifications. You'll see that the DRW has a higher towing and carrying capacity than the same model SRW. You give up maneuverability which even with a SRW is all that great. You probably take a hit on fuel mileage too with a DRW. Plus your tire expenses increase by 50%.
Whether you need a DRW depends on what you expect to tow. SRW will tow medium sized fifth wheels easily, but when you get to the longest and heaviest fivers you'll want a DRW.
What expenses increase 50%?:h.
