[@deanproctor2690]

Awesome Vid. I appreciate the honesty and showing everybody first hand knowledge with the large pick up trucks. I’ll add one thing based on my experience. I live in Maine. Inspection stickers are required every year. If your 3500 is a daily driver under 10,000 lbs then your inspection will cost 12.50 IF you go above the 10,000 lbs then your inspection is 60.00 bucks. I do know a few that own the large pick ups that don’t work them. Just a daily driver. Couldn’t really wrap my head around that.

She drives a Jeep Grand Cherokee and I drive either my Dodge Ram 2500 QC long bed 4x4 or my Jeep JKU Rubicon (lifted with 35" wheels & steel bumpers). Neither of my vehicles get great fuel mileage but I bought them for other reasons. The Dodge will haul my truck camper and tow my trailers (a 28' fifth wheel, a 16' utility, and a canoe trailer). My Jeep goes off road a fair amount but I hope to drive it more off road in the future.

[@honeybadgers1996]

I totally agree with you on parking spaces gotten smaller especially in CA. I don’t live there but was there for my business and had to squeeze my dually between two smaller cars. The owner of my left side came out and she was really pissed off asking me if I really had to drive such a big vehicle. My answer was “I do bc I have to haul water” and thinking I can’t possibly haul my water with a plug-in like yours....

[@rossatkinson3160]

Try living in Australia. You cannot fit a Hilux or Colorado with tray backs in the length of most parking spots.....LOL Don't even contemplate a Dually.

[@larryarmstrong6973]

Same here. It's not made to drive around town in going to Wally World or the mall. It's made to tow with. Use the 1/2 tons for your city driving.

[@Harry-zz2oh]

James, how do you like the Ram ? I'm looking at getting the same model of truck or the F350 with the 7.3 gas engine. So far, I haven't been able to make up my mind since both have their pros and cons. The real challenge is when would it arrive.

[@larryarmstrong6973]

@Jonathan Tripp My/ our dually isn't our daily driver. In fact it's been 30+ years since I've had a pickup as a daily driver so we don't take it to the shopping mall. Lowes maybe but not Wally world. It's for towing and that's pretty much it. It has a solid feel to it. I don't drive it in the winter because there's no reason to. We live in Montana and it's usually too cold to go camping anyway so it sits in the shop all winter. I use my VW Jetta to do all my chasing around. I like getting 35-40 mpg in it. Makes up for the 10mpg we get with the dually when we're towing our 33.5' 5th wheel with our 1000RZR behind it. The aluminum Hillsboro flatbed, in my opinion is the only way to go when towing a 5th wheel. Love it and that's why, even though we really don't need a dually any more, this pickup is perfect for us. We like the long wheel base of the crew cab and the extra seat for putting stuff in for the trip. And we get the looks when we drive in. It's a sharp looking rig.

[@justustrucking007]

That part and throw beer cans in da back bed lmao

[@caroldavid1019]

I've towed for over 40 years with a 2500 SRW, 3500 SRW, and my current 3500 DRW. My 2013 Big Horn 5th wheel weights 15,500 lbs. My last truck was a 3500 SRW and would get a little ass shack passing semis or when the crosswinds picked up. The dually tracks 100% better. I have the OEM self leveling rear air bags and this truck rides smoother empty and loaded than any 2500 and 3500 on the market. My friends drive all the makes and sizes and I have driven them all. They have also driven my 3500. All 9 of them agree that the Ram OEM air bagged truck is the smoothest ride them all. And the biggest benefit is it automatically keeps the rear at the set height, there is no sag.

[@JeffinTD]

Having towed the same 5th wheel up the same route with a Ram 3500 single, and a nearly identical Ram 3500 Dually- I arrive much less fatigued driving the dually. The SRW handled it fine, but the dually is much more planted, stable and relaxing. Then I got a big 5th wheel that would have overloaded the tires/axle rating of the single rear wheel.

[@sw5334]

I daily drive my dually. I find it easier to park than my SRW truck as you can see the sides of the outer tires, as long as you keep them inside the lines your good to go. Also my dually is cheaper to insure than my SRW was, insurance said it’s cause of all the claims they get from people off-road damaging their SRW’s, people don’t usually take dually’s 4x4ing. Also I find squishy cars get out of my way more cause they are intimidated by the size. Makes my job easier.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Great point 👍🏾

[@JeepRam3500]

Great honest review. I have a Dually simply because it gives me options for towing (goose neck, 5th wheel, truck camper, bumper pull, hot shotting, etc) and yes it cost more and yes I drive a Jeep Rubicon as a daily, but my dually is the last truck I will ever buy. Made the mistake of trading my 2016 Dually for a new 1500 and realized that despite how nice it was, it limited my options and I now had a car, not a truck. Traded back and have a 20 Dually. Probably one of only 3 or 4 vehicles that I have had that I smile every time I look at it. Nothing better.

[@patriotarborist711]

what brand?

[@noels.8345]

Nowadays it’s crazy because people are buying up the 2500’s loaded as fashion pieces so they’re driving the 2500 prices up way higher than the 3500 duallys. I’ve seen it with my own eyes.

[@RoadRider95]

The only issues I see is no more car washes and most drive thru windows with a DRW. Then needing two more tires for new tires. Big positive is the stability. But what you don’t like, another person may or vice-versa.

[@williamtricarico6684]

Great points for and against. I tow a Gooseneck enclosed car trailer as well as a 40' pintle 3 axle boat trailer. Currently my tow vehicle is a Silverado 2500hd 6.0 4x4 extra cab short bed. Maneuverability is great, plenty of power to pull whatever is attached to the back. Always able to get out of loose pack, sand, dirt, mud, while towing. Have also had Duallys, both 4x4 and 2wd. When the trailer wants to "take over", boy is it nice to have that " big a.." out back to set it straight. But, I'm gonna be real, in the snow, mud, or not so "Terra Firma", contrary to what you would think, dually will bury their rears quickly. A few instances actually forced me to remove the outer wheels I order to get out of trouble without disconnecting. To anyone that is really gonna daily drive a full size beast that isn't towing every day, spending 100,000.00 for an uncomfortable ride isn't sensible. If you're pulling trailers regularly, longer distances, traveling frequently, well maybe. But driving locally, mostly dealing with congestion, small parking spaces narrow streets, Teslas, Prius's, Ricky racers, motorcycles, kids on bikes and skateboards, and pedestrians, but need a full size truck for every day use, stick to a single. Don't feel like your less of a man, just smarter! I actually wish there were still S-10s, Toyota SR5s, Datsun(Nissan), small trucks. They really make even more sense now than they did back then, given, congestion and gas prices. GM actually had a fleet service only S-10 that was powered by the EV-1 drive system which the general public couldn't have, which held the EV record at Pikes Peak until recently. That was set in the early nineties. Okay, I'm old and rambling.

Good points, all. I had no idea about increased cost of registration. Increased insurance makes sense to me. I’m currently in an EB Chevy Camper van, which is also a beast to park. I was dreaming of a dually and a Big Foot truck camper, which would increase total length due to camper hangover. I’ve put that dream on hold for a while since production of both trucks and truck campers is down and prices are way up. Thanks for the objective approach to owning a dually! ✌🏼

[@Harry-zz2oh]

A new one costs less than the used trucks, especially if you order what you want. If you find one on the lot, just get it.

[@ricwestdoesitwork]

Awesome video JB. Parking and fuel cost were the 2 things used to talk myself out of a dually but now I wish I would have just got one mostly for the confidence in towing. Thanks JB.

Yup, it’s definitely something to consider when you tow a lot but I’m still happy with my SRW. Thanks Ric 👍🏾

[@dc686]

Minor concerns for the capability and stability of a dually. I’ve hand nothing but duallys for 16 years and wouldn’t have anything else. I told my brother in law that he needed to sell his srw Ram 2500 that he tows his huge fifth wheel with and buy a dually, he always said he didn’t need it. That was until he had a blow out on the rear and about flipped it. He now has a 21 Ram 3500 dually and said he regrets not getting one years ago.

[@Michael-zr9mh]

Yeah that is it exactly. A SRW is great until something goes wrong. Its kind of funny how most of the trailer accidents on KZbin are almost always SRW vehicles.

[@fahey6797]

What if a front tire blows out?

[@nolandclark653]

Great video!! I drive trucks for a living and I think you touched on must points. Also with the fuel economy is that duallies are usually lower geared and that is bad for fuel economy but great for pulling heavy loads especially on inclines.

[@douglasolsen1208]

Bought a 2020 RAM 3500 dually last year. Agree with the drawbacks you mention, but still very happy with the truck and its performance. Pulls our Keystone Outback (35 feet hitch to bumper) home with no worries. Looking forward to replacing that rig with a fifth wheel one day and really putting the dually’s to their true use. One advantage to parking a dually in many parking lots I think should not be overlooked is the nice, long walk to and from the stores once I find a parking spot I fit into! Very relaxing!

[@happg2320]

[@JB_WhoWork]

Thank You 🙏🏾

[@djamesgraham]

Excellent video but I would strongly suggest - it depends. A huge advantage of the dually is two-fold: 1) Weight that you can tow 2) stability. I have towed with an SRW & DRW and I will never go back to a single axle. Moreover, I can get a 4.10 Rear Gear -which runs through the mountains that I do with my 42ft 5th wheel, I am in the center lane all the way up the mountain. - never get off 70MPH - Stability is the biggest reason for me truthfully.

[@tombork2281]

I've been driving duallys in many situations for many years. Some guys just don't feel comfortable driving them, some do. I love duallys! It was a challenge to get used to driving / handling them, but I adjusted quickly and have no problem at all with them now.

[@larryarmstrong6973]

After having driven trucks which are 120' long and over width, driving a dually for me is like driving a little car. But I don't drive mine around town as my daily driver. I have too much invested in it to take the chance on somebody who doesn't care about anyone elses stuff. Once in a while if we have to pull our utility trailer we'll use the pickup but otherwise it's all highway use mostly pulling our 5th wheel camper with our 1000RZR on another trailer behind it.

[@jessicamelu3353]

[@Harry-zz2oh]

Good video and well timed. You have a very nice way of saying things to enable anyone to understand exactly what you want them to know. I love your demonstration of parking. I've learned it is much easier to park any vehicle if you back in to the spot since you can see where you are going when you come out. I also will find a place so I can just drive forward when leaving. Usually this happens since I'm parked out a ways from other vehicles.

[@cnoyes72]

With any big pickup truck (dually's especially, but SRW 3/4 and one ton trucks too), be prepared to park in the hinterlands of any lot. Lots of newer lots are painted for small cars. Even my tundra has issues in some lots; just too narrow.

[@Back_door_bandit_98]

I personally always park in the back no one has respect for people's things anymore way to many door dings but yes my 3/4 ton long bed silver rado has trouble fitting in tight spots.

[@JB_WhoWork]

@cnoyes72 very true

[@AkioWasRight]

For me, that's a positive. Since there are fewer cars out there, that means fewer door dings. Also, walking more means more exercise.

[@ryanmcnulty8323]

Yeah, I’ll just be the guy to take up two spots at the very back of the lot if the sports are too narrow

[@Back_door_bandit_98]

@@ryanmcnulty8323 I've had a few buddy's of mine do that came out to their truck keyed and dinged up people just have no respect for people's things they think your just trying to be a douche taking up 2 spots when in reality it's the person that designed the parking lots fault.

[@davidgrason161]

There is one other disadvantage to having a dually that most people don't realize because they never tow boats. But having four rear wheels on a slippery boat ramp actually works against you because each tire has the load spread out more - each tire presses down on the pavement less. As a result, the dually will struggle to maintain traction when a single rear wheel truck will do much better under those circumstances. For this reason, I always install a locker in the rear axle if it doesn't already have posi because I'm going to the lake a lot. That being said, this is not enough to sway me from owning a dually. To my mind, the advantages of a dually completely outweigh the disadvantages. It's a truck - a REAL truck built to do REAL work.

[@cargotoolshop5319]

Missed the true draw back of the dually, they hydroplane very easy and in the winter they cut another grove in the snow and always feel loose unless you put heavy weight in the rear then it's almost fun cause it's so planted to the road, I would only consider a dually if I had a flatbed on my truck, and if you ever do that you won't ever want to go back to a single rear wheel truck

[@larryarmstrong6973]

That's me. You nailed it on the head. I bought our dually for that very reason, to put a flatbed on it. The bed has so much room. We have the crew cab but use ours to pull our 5th wheel camper. Having a flatbed makes so much sense It is so stabile. Don't use it much in the winter so driving in the snow isn't a problem for us. Having a flatbed to pull a 5th wheel is the only way to go.

[@ericl5973]

Wise words for sure. I only had a dually because I was looking for a specific combination used truck and what I found was a dually. Since then, it has been converted to SRW as I don't tow heavy at all with my truck. Sad part of my Ram Megacab is that it only has a 10500lb GVWR for a dually in 2006 but that may have been to allow for 15klb towing without a CDL.

[@carlm8821]

Very informative. Thanks again!

I’ve driven a Ford dually since 2010 ( number 3 2019 dually) I bought it knowing I couldn’t park by the front door of a business and we built the garage to accommodate them. I will not buy another single wheel truck

[@misters2837]

I think its the same (never going back) as making any major Jump in truck size... Going from F150 to F250/F350 SRW Superduty to F350 DRW and then finally to the Chassis Cab F550 4x4 (the largest Crew Cab 4x4 Truck Currently made by Ford)

Parking? Car wash? Garage? Soft ride? If you believe any of these things are too much to deal with? You probably shouldn't drive anything larger than a FIAT!!! If you park further out and walk. And wash it by hand. You won't need to go to the GYM quite so often!!! Lol

The biggest drawback I have is airing down and back up for camoing in the sand. I just went on a four hour road trip with my 5th wheel and I loved the power and stability of my dually. Passing trucks you dont feel it going down the fwy. I do not quite understand the confidence, to me the dually is so much of a better towing experience, much more relaxing and focusing on the road rather than the load.

Good video. I have been driving a dually since 1990. From gas with manual trans. To my ram 3500 4x4 space shuttle today. You must combine common sense with towing or bad things happen. When you realize that stability is the main reason for a dually, every thing else is just adaptation. And mine has been down alleys that I have to pull the mirror in on.

[@Mike-xo3fi]

I just picked up a 2021 Chevy 2500hd in Ontario Canada and yes the annual plate sticker doubled. But man it pulls my 35’ travel trailer with ease and a lot less swaying on the hyways compared to my ram 1500. Nice videos and keep them coming!!!🙃😃

[@johnfcomeau5011]

You shouldn't try and park in a spot like that. Park all the way in the back

[@Michael-zr9mh]

unless there is no choice. That's what I do.

[@jimdinwiddie4837]

Having a Silverado 3500 DRW longbed, I've found it's not the hips but the length, especially when parking. Even with my 1500 short bed, I never attempted to pull into a parking space, far easier to back in. As far as gearing 1500,2500,3500, with the same drive train your fuel economy is going to be so close it's not going to make a difference. Really enjoy your other videos.

Having the extra wheels won’t impact mileage??

@@jimdinwiddie4837 I’m considering a dually for the payload. My 5th wheel isn’t a toy hauler, I am looking into a Ramptek over the cab setup. I’ll need payload for that.

I have 0 issues parking my F450. Wide front axle and turning radius makes it much easier than the rest of the duallies.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Very true

[@bradmiller6507]

Yes, parking my F450 is easier than parking my Nissan Titan.

[@reubenrowell7717]

What is your guy’s opinion on a single cab dually? Do you think wide track matters that much on a truck that short?

[@gman69455]

@@reubenrowell7717 hauling a backhoe through neighborhoods with a 550 single cab for work, yes it makes a difference. When you can whip a 35ish foot trailer around a cul-de-sac lined with vehicles not parked against the curb is nice. The extra turning radius makes tight spots possible where without you may not even be able to back up and sharpen your angle.

[@onebumne]

Exact reason I went with a single wheel 3500. Hard enough to park that thing.

[@paulparenteau1518]

Love my ram 3500 dually. You're mostly spot on. It all boils down to the driver and what you're willing to deal with. I live IN Chicago. Not the burbs. Narrow streets are one of my biggest issues. Manageable but can be a pain. Parking is somewhat of a problem but again, patiently manageable. My absolute biggest issue is winter. Front tires blaze a trail and the rear wheels blaze their own. Rear end is squirrelly. Love the dry ground stability but 4 wheels are better than 6 in the winter.

[@dionbraddy]

Great info fam man I needed that.

[@timsalgado9932]

When I need to reach my step goal on my fitbit, I drive my dually somewhere....

that wouldn't brother me Because i parked far away from everybody

[@JB_WhoWork]

Lol true!

[@2nddancervadventures643]

The frame rails on a “cab & chassis” are narrower than on a standard pickup. How much narrower is a C&C dually axle? Have you (or any other commenters) actually taken a measuring tape to the outside of C&C dually wheels and compared to pickup? I’m thinking they’re narrower (and thus easier to park), but need confirmation!

[@markschultz926]

You hit it right on the head excellent video I listen to everything you said you're right on thank you for this video

[@rvdogfl]

You are not driving a Prius You are driving a truck. Park in truck parking. I have been driving a dually for the last 30 years and love my dually. If you want a smother ride when empty air down your rear tires to 45 psi. I don't need a dually but I want a dually because a dually tows rock solid.

[@JB_WhoWork]

I agree and thanks for the recommendation on the tire pressure 👍🏾

[@AndrewEllisAndymanout]

Thank you for the information.

[@manuelguzmanjr6622]

Thanks for these tips, I had no idea.

[@JC.Tanguay]

I don't see a dually as a "daily car situation" unless you are a farmer, landscaper or towing /huge payload all the time

[@andrewb2111]

I'm a farmer and a landscaper ... I drive an F-350 SRW Long Bed w/6.7 Diesel. There's a reason they put the dually tires on the trailers lol ... that's where the heavy load should go, loaded correctly of course. RV's are a different animal ... not sure why they haven't figured out a way to put a super single rim under them to reduce sway and improve stability.

[@LucasLeCompteMusic]

3500 Single rear wheel is the way to go!

[@cargotoolshop5319]

Yes sir, if you need more tire in back, order your self some 19.5 tires and rims,

[@rickhuis3773]

I’ve got a 4 wheel 4x4 3500 mega cab and haul my 38’ 5th wheel with no issues.

Another great honest review. Thanks and yes, I have a Dually! Love it!

[@JB_WhoWork]

Best truck you could ever buy!

[@robv4053]

Please note your comment about insurance is incorrect. A privately registered dually is not blindly treated as a commercial vehicle by insurance. Rates are based on a matrix of factors. Possibly you are confusing wrapped in coverage on your camper, which many do (but may be insufficient for higher end campers and full-time coverage). Beyond what I know behind the scenes, I own a RAM 3500 CC LB 4wd Cummins/AISIN DRW and a RAM 1500 CC LB 4wd Hemi SRW, about the same yearly mileage, full coverage, both same model years and my dually is actually $63 less per 6 mos (just renewed this week). Nevermind it cost me a lot more! 🤣Nevertheless, an SRW cannot handle our 5er's pin weight. DRWs are not for everyone, but having the right tool for the job is right for everyone.

[@MrR1rider1]

I personally love my Dually. It pulls my 40' 5th wheel way better than my Ram 2500 did.

[@JB_WhoWork]

💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@dptp9lf]

Is this a dually review for a daily driver or a tow vehicle? Have you ever owned or driven a dually as a daily driver? Your video screams you going to a dealer buddy and test driving a dually so you can do a video. I know nothing about you but if this stuff bothers you you should just jump back in your 1/2 ton.

[@stkcattleandhay]

What tire psi are the tires at on the dually. Mine were at 90psi off the lot. Also 235/80R17 tires are cheaper than stock 18 or 20" tires. That will offset the cost of 2 extra tires.

[@JJH2882]

It took me months to learn what you explained in just 12 minutes, nice job Sir!

[@JB_WhoWork]

Glad it helped!

[@scotts595]

These are the reasons we didn’t get a dually.

[@michaelcuff5780]

These trucks are made to be loaded to the hilt and pull a heavy trailer. You want something that rides nice buy a F150!

[@supporterofsanity]

Now I really can’t decide! Lol great points once again. Thanks for sharing good sir!

[@JB_WhoWork]

Haha! Sorry, I’ve been confusing everyone 🤣🤣

[@DailyDriver.]

So with the 26000 # weight limit, if you get a srw 3500 that still applies right? So is that combined with the truck and the fifth wheel or the travel trailer and payload or total combined ?

[@majoroz4876]

EXCELLENT video. Good information, without a lot of yak-yak. Thank you.

[@bjw2728]

I appreciate this commentary. I just ordered a 2022 Ram 3500 CCLB 4X4 6.7HO SRW and was on the fence about a dually. I was thinking about changing the order, but it was already assigned a VIN. This video and the comments have helped me accept that I'm getting a SRW lol. Here where we live in rural MT, many of the roads aren't paved, and all the roads are covered to some degree in snow and ice for at least 4-5 months. I do a fair amout of off road driving. I do tow regularly, enclosed trailers, horse trailer, and a 28ft camper - all bumper pull - but they're well within the capabilities of what I spec'd. I've had heavy equipment in the past, and I suppose I wanted the capability to haul heavy if I needed it. Also, a truck like this is just as much a piece of equipment to me as it is a daily driver, and I like to put equipment to work lol. A DRW has the potential for a better return than a SRW. There certainly are operating costs that don't make sense to float unless you're doing it for a living, vs just hauling as a side hustle and taking what loads you're capable of. My primary business is as a carpenter/general contractor, so a SRW suits my needs very well. The dually is beautiful beast though lol... I guess it's a needs vs wants thing lol. Thanks again

[@scotthooper4170]

Thanks JB. I’ll have to consider the trailer weights & licensing, as well as insurance. I also was not AW that financing might be higher also. Very good catch. Thank you again for sharing this information.

Alot of good content. Just bought my 1st dually for towing a large toyhauler. Went from Ford F350 single rear wheel to a Ram Limited Longhorn loaded with max tow package. Love the upgraded truck but the wider hips are a big adjustment! Like he said be prepared to park in the back 40 acres. Lifetime Ford owner switching to RAM has brought me alot of flack but it was the right decision to get the KING RANCH KILLER!

Great explanations. You have exact to the point answers. The laws about towing over 26K pounds is very confusing. I’ve had RV 5th wheel dealers give me the wrong “facts” about tow max ratings vs the State Laws. Thank you for clarifying what a non- CDL not for hire is. Again, great video!

[@Soladaddy]

Driving a 23 year old crew cab dually, now as a daily driver. Gotta park in the back and backing into most spots is easier than front first. To me the biggest drawback is the turning radius of a barge. All of this so when its tow time, it handles the load like a dream.

[@wadeh486]

When you said here's the problem and showed the truck sticking out of the parking spot, I lost it. So funny. I love my dully.
