We just have an older 04 Duramax 1 ton dually and our older, 90, camper isn't as heavy or long as lots of the newer ones at 9.5', no slides but we have a cargo tray on the back that is our steps and storage. We took it several places on forest service roads last summer, thru water crossings, up on the Grand Mesa by Grand Junction and on up to Meeker to some places and dry camped. Didn't have any problems but we are slower travelers and cautious when we go off the beaten path. Don't take any rock crawling type trails. Might call us chicken or faint of heart but we also know our limitations and what we can afford to fix. Our dually is 4x4 but hope we never REALLY need it to get somewhere on purpose, just in a dumb move pinch. Wouldn't want our family to read about us in the news, but we still manage to go lots of places, see lots of sights we've never seen, fish and such.
