I have driven SRW pickups with campers all over the USA and on many bad forest service roads and never had a problem. A DRW with 4 tires at the rear will have more support and there will be less sidewall flexing with standard duty E rated tires.
I have been driving trucks from 1/2 ton to 3 ton in places like Los Angeles and the SF bay area and that can be a lot more stressful than any amount of driving with a camper in the bed. To say that a camper on a SRW truck is going to result in white knuckle experiences is a matter of opinion and someone with that little driving skill should be in a Class B motorhome.
