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?

Guess there is a difference towing a TT and towing a 5er...From outside fender well to outside fender well on my dually, I have 96", (8')...same width as my 5er...so they track pretty much dead even...but will agree no way do I want to take a high profile, almost 40' long 5er "off road", (don't know your definition of off road, but mine is...you need a 4 wheel drive to get to the trout stream and I'm not towing a trailer of any type into that :))....I've had my 5er on narrow gravel roads towing up the side of a mountain and down into some grassy meadows and never had an issue..in fact my property in WVa on a river can be a trick to get into...going on 3years, not been a issue...guess it may also be what you're used to driving and towing
