My father has a 2005 Dodge SRW 3500 with the low HP engine. He gets 24 empty. If you need duals I would choose the Ram over the Ford because with Ram I believe you can choose duals and still get a 3:42 rear axle so I wouldn't expect the fuel economy to drop as much. My srw Ford is not great on fuel and the 3:73 gears and smaller tires of the dually would likely make it terrible.
I know a lot of folks tow fifth wheels with pin weights of 2500 or more pounds with 250/2500 trucks; if they tried out the dually I am sure the experience would be even more stable.
I've got both SRW and DRW and my SRW is just as stable towing the same load. The DRW can just handle my tongue weight.
Are you saying you can tow the rig in my sig with your srw as well as with your drw?
