2003 Dodge Laramie SLT 3500 dually diesel 4x2 auto and 2009 Northstar 9.5 Igloo U. Love this combo. Very fuel efficient, lots of room, easy to park and set up.

Such a long wide truck just isn't very handy for us.
That was our original situation. But our situation eventually changed to where we were not having to use the truck as our daily driver and we also wanted to tow a 7,000 lb car hauler while hauling our camper. At that point, a drw made sense for us.

People with SRW trucks hauling heavy TC's dont know what they are missing compared to the stability of a dually. Wise choice!!

We switched to a dually 7 years ago and havent looked back. Absolutly no comparison between the two when it comes to heavy campers. It seems its a learning curve most just have to go through.
Congrats on the new truck.

Been there done that...Dealer told me my SRW would work out fine, but a white knuckle experience all the way. So from identical trucks, SRW to a dually the difference is amazing (think, day and night). Almost like having outriggers to aid stability. Driving one with a bigger TC is believing.
