Here is a challenge that Pickuptrucks.com ran on 2018 1 ton SRW and then 2017 1 ton DRW where they did a braking challenge from 60 MPH to 0.
1 ton SRW:
Chevy - 165.3 feet
Ford - 158.3 feet
1 ton DRW:
GMC - 133.39 feet
Ford - 139.68 feet

I have towed same trailer with dually and SRW.
Spoiler alert: The dually will stop faster.
I never knew or considered the DRW and SRW have same braking components. I simply recognized from the driver seat the dually stops quicker than the srw
