Looking at the unit above:
With the short and narrow wheel base and the height how stable is the unit in windy conditions.
Kind-of reminds me of wrestling... If you don't want flipped you get as low as possible and spread out your arms and legs.
The dually will contribute to a higher maximum load but by being narrow the duallys won't help stability.
It is my opinion that this is a cute novality... much like the RV's that we see built in garbage trucks or a hollowed out log.... not practicle.
Flame away... but think about my comment a bit.
Wrestle with it!

Drove a similar rig in Australia on a 4000 mile trip across the country. It was a motor home but on the same type of chassis and cabover. Never had a problem with sway or feeling top heavy although looking at the rig, you would think that it would be top heavy (my rig not the OP).
Should also add that I really liked the cabover setup.....although I know what they say....you are always the first guy at the accident!!! But I used to drive VW vans when I was younger and that did not bother me either.
All Terrain Warriors has modified that rather primitive suspension you find on light Japanese Trucks and they give a SUVt type ride.Agree with the lack of sway or lack of top heaviness. Cab overs are everywhere here for light up to heavy trucks.
