Truck camper on a flat bed
What are pros / cons of considering a nice flat bed dually; the flat beds that have the tool boxes mounted underneath the bed look like they could be very user friendly.

I'm sure they are strong enough for load directly off the receiver. It's when you put an extension on the receiver to clear the rear of the truck camper where additional leverage becomes a factor. Right now I use a 2' extension and if I get a longer TC, I may need the 4' or 5' one for my enclosed trailer.
Extensions lower 'all' ratings. Doesn't matter what it's on or where the receiver is actually located. The lower capacity is not disproportionately affected because the receiver is not directly behind...
