I've driven both SRW and DRW trucks in the snow, up to 15"...SRW and couple of the dually's were Chevy's, now last 3 were Ram's....they all acted the same, it mostly depends on the person behind the wheel...been in ice here in Western NC and I don't care what you have, ice is bad...best stay off of it, but dry deep snow, wet snow or slushy snow all have to be driven in a little differently. I've had no problem driving in the snow in NC, VA, TN or WV with the dually's, Chevy or Ram. (couldn't really tell where one brand would be worse or better than the other on that issue:h).
I went with a dually, originally, due to heavier pin weight and 5er GVW.....been driving Dually's since 05' and even got caught in a snow storm towing from Sevierville TN to Asheville NC, through the Gorge on I40....something I wouldn't do intentionally, but if one takes their time and uses a little common sense, you should do fine...I've had no issues with driving a dually in the snow....
