It is not an option with pickups, but a single wheel rig will generally speaking, assuming the same overall width, same gawr, same everything but 4 vs 2 tires, will out perform a dually. BUT, the cavernous area tween the ears, testosterone and a few other items like this still have dullies out doing sw rigs.
I changed out the rear springs of my 96 sw rig to the same ones a dually had. Then bought a duallie, I personally did not find any handling difference etc with the sw rig vs the dually pulling my 12K equipment trailer with 1500 lbs of hw. The wight off the FA went from about 300 lbs to 200 with the sw, same as the dually.
At the end of the day tho, as many have pointed out, you need the proper payload for what you are doing. Otherwise, a duallie with too little payload, is just as bad off as a single. Or the single with proper payload is better than a duallie with too little!
