2014 Ram 3500 without Aisin Tranny
I can get an incredible deal on a new Ram 3500 SRW, 6.7 Cummins, but it does not have the Aisin tranny. My eventual intentions would be to tow a 16,000 lb. fiver. Would it be worth me ordering a 201...

My opinion of DRW trucks is similar ti twin engine aircraft. When one engine fails, the second one is only there to carry you to the scene of the crash.
On a DRW, if you get a nail in one dual and it goes flat, you probably will not notice it until it shreds, but by that time the other tire is ruined by carrying twice the design load and is trash also. Buy 2 tires instead of one.
............or.........just the opposite of your analysis...6 of 1, half dozen the other....tire goes flat, the other will carry you to get repair or both replaced.....
A good pilot very well may land that one engine airplane safely, if both go out, a VERY GOOD pilot MIGHT be able to glide to safety..one just never knows...not a very good analogy..
