I tried to use my CC Dually as a DD. I have about a 70-80 miles commute and I work an office job in the middle of a city, and we have a parking garage.
My dually was a PITA as a DD.
I now have a F150 SCREW with the 5.5 ft bed. Talk about the best of both worlds. I can tow a decent trailer (NOT 35 ft!) and its easy to handle in my parking garage and down town. It can still get tight from time to time.
I could probably edge up to a 6.5 ft bed 2500/3500 series without much problem.
But let me tell ya, that "Little bit rougher ride" over 80 miles Every...single...day... can turn into a kidney killing, back aching, machine. Of course, the new 2500's ride much better than my old F350 Dually.
When we upgrade to a heavier duty truck it will be a 2500 CC Short bed.
YMMV and Good Luck!
Thank!
