a DUALLY is a lot of truck- especially on the narrow dirt roads I travel on to get to my mining claims.
Mine's an '01, I've had it since almost new, and I can honestly say I've never been in a situation where I went "Rut Roh" solely due to the extra width. You're only talking an extra 12". Seems like a lot, but you get used to it. Plus any TC you get will be as wide or wider.
The extra capacity more than makes up for any inconvenience. For instance--
I can haul 2 full yards of 5/8's minus driveway gravel (~5,000lbs).
I have hauled 2 full pallets of decorative yard brick (~4500lbs).
My 5'er Toyhauler (42' triple axle Cyclone) had a pin weight of 3,200lbs.
