I made my paid off SRW work well hauling an AF811 while towing a 20' enclosed trailer. However, I don't think I would buy a SRW knowing how many modifications I needed to make the ride safe. Unless you are constrained for space when using the truck without the camper or have homeowner rules that prevent you from keeping the truck at the house, a DRW will do the same job with less modifications. Any cost saving of buying a SRW and modifying it to handle the weight properly with wheel and suspension upgrades will end up costing you as much or more than a DRW. The SRW will save you in insurance and fuel costs but some items will wear faster than in the DRW counterpart which may eliminate those savings.
