Pickup truck tow vehicle stability tests
Always lots of anecdotal statements on rv.net around dual wheel vs single rear wheel "stability". Anyone have any links that point to actual testing results under controlled conditions?

And as for comparing a dually with a SRW that is 5 years newer and stating that the newer SRW is better.... Well that depends on just what 5 year span one is talking about. From about 2000-2010, capabilities were pretty constant. The big three substantially redesigned and upped the capacities from 2011-2013.... But those capacities were raised for the duallys as well. So that argument falls flat.
No the argument don't fall flat. Dually is a dually as far as what everyone is saying. The way all the people that are pushing the "dually is more stable" push sounds like it don't matter if you buy a 1990 DRW or a 2015 it will always be more stable than a SRW truck. I'm saying that's wrong and misleading.
