Never owned a dually

One of the great things about a dually is that you can run much lower pressure in the rear tires which helps with the ride. You may notice a bit of a difference from your current truck in ride quality but I don’t think it will be significant.

I will bet that my SRW with 40 lbs in the rear tires rides better than your DRW does with 35 lbs in four rear tires.

Probably, but my truck is definitely sprung heavier than yours too.....:W

I don’t adjust my tire pressures when not towing, just leave them at around 55-60 all the time. No need to with a dually......:)

I think the point is no matter what springs and number of tires you have, the more capacity you have the worse the ride will be generally speaking. There's no free lunch here. Stiffer springs or more tire sidewalls flex less (as they should). So lowering pressure to help with the ride lowers your capacity. So does having less tires.
