I hauled 4000 lbs with a high center gravity using a SRW and now a DRW. I attribute the better handling of my new DRW more to the heavier suspension than the wider stance. My SRW was never unstable, but it required suspension and wheel upgrades to do this safely (especially when I hitched up a 1000 lbs of tongue weight) when my rear axle loads were around 8000 lbs.
You can modify a truck to pull this fifth wheel safely or you can buy a truck that can do this without modification. It depends on what form of truck you want and whether you are comfortable with a modified truck or keeping it OEM.
