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?

Get the right tools for the job. I like to use my truck as a moderate 4WD at our destinations. A dually just is not that good in the mud, or on narrow roads. So, I am backwards from most folks. Our 5ers will always be towable by a SRW and it will be a super cab with a standard bed. This is about as big a truck that I can manage on crappy roads. Of course this is the type of company truck I used in the oilfield. Your Mileage may vary.
I'm like you. I like to have a truck to drive when not towing, so I purposely set my sights on FWs that will fit the truck I have/want. Right now I'm in a maxed out 2500HD with my current FW, which is =heavy=, for all that it's a low profile with a fairly light pin. I realize now that, had we bought the 2-slide mid-profile model, 4' longer, I'd be =way= overloaded and would have spent a couple thousand in beefing up an inadequate truck. My goal is an early 2007 3500HD SRW and I'll buy a FW to fit within its specs.
