F350 long box dually
First decision is about dually or single. If you get a dually, it will be a long box. You can get a long box in a single rear axle. I wouldn't get a short box with a 5th wheel. Too many stories about broken rear windows in cab and problems with a slip hitch. But for dually vs single, it is all about weights and can the single wheel handle it. There are several spreadsheets out on the web that calculate weights and whether you will be overweight. I ended up with a dually and I am glad I got the dually. Weight, no problem. Driving in wind, no problem. Going up and down mountains, no problem. My fifth wheel has GVWR of 17,600 pounds. I put all the wights in the calculator and a single wheel truck just couldn't legally pull my trailer.
