I guess it all depends upon whether you want to stay within the official ratings. If not, then the only difference is 500 lbs between the rear axle on the 3500 mega cab and the rear axle on the 2500 mega cab (6500 vs 7000). Same front axle. Tires are more than capable. You can weigh your truck in camping configuration and then decide if you want to use the axle weights or the GVW as your limiting factor. If you want to use axle weights, then you've got a lot more options. But you really need to weigh your truck. Then you'll know.
You'll probably find that you would still need a dually for the fiver in the original post which can have a pin weight exceeding 4000 lbs if loaded up fully, but there are fivers that weigh much less than that one. If you use axle ratings, you aren't limited to travel trailers and you don't need to trade in your truck for a dually.
