Tow Rig question SRW or DRW for 5th RAM
I'm sure this has been debated millions of times, but here is a new spin. At what weight would you consider a DRW to be mandatory whilst towing a fifth wheel ? 10k 11k 12k 13k 14k 15k 16...

GVW above 16500 is a need for a dually. My trailer is rated at 16500 and I have a 2012 F350 diesel SRW. I never pull with full water, grey and black tanks. I have over 30K miles and have never felt unsafe or the truck was over loaded. The CAT scales are in well within Ford's spec except for the combine weight which is 200 lbs over. My trailer suspension more of a worry for me because the trailer mfg's cut a lot of corners while the truck suspension is stock and Ford made it more trustworthy.
