A better comparison would be tow truck's total GAWRs vs total towing weight.
A tractor typically have 44k rears with 13k fronts. That's 57k for 80k combined weight.
A dually has 10k rears and 6k fronts, at best. That's 16k for 40k+ combined.
So the semi tractor has a much better running gear toughness to GCW ratio.
Sure on long term durability but what percentage would you give to the Semi VS Pickup.
