Still don't agree that you NEED a dually to rack up some miles with a moderate size TC, but your big aversion to a dually is the daily driver aspect for the next 3 years almost.
No need to buy a truck now. Trucks are dime a dozen and quite frankly way overpriced currently with the good economy and lack of inventory.
Just wait 2 years and then buy the truck. Or if you're handy, buy a 1ton srw now and make it a dually when you're ready to roll 3 years from now.
Can pretty much promise that having a dually won't limit you where you can go with a TC. The camper is as wide as the fenders and the whole thing is heavy enough you're not going 4 wheelin with a camper attached.
