There are two more aspects separating a single vs dual rear setup
Track and number of 10 ply rated (or more) sidewalls
Take yourself and let someone push you sideways HARD
Once with your feet planted about 6 inches apart
Second time with your feet planted shoulder width or more
Which one would resist and control that sideways push better and easier...
That is 'track' or the distance between the left to right tires on pavement
Single will have FOUR 10 ply (or more) rated sidewalls
Dually will have EIGHT 10 ply (or more) rated sidewalls
Even though they each may total to the same weight carry...one with more sidewalls will have less sidewall movement (roll over, squirm, etc) than the other
This is for towing/hauling heavy....car attributes forces compromises and is very subjective to each individual.
Like 'ride quality' is not on my 'have to have list' and towards the bottom of my 'nice to have list'...
Ditto lack of maneuverability when used as a car. Decide which is more important and is subjective to the individual
There is no one size fits all and campaigning for/against is trying to convince someone otherwise to their own needs/wants/etc...
