You will appreciate the additional stability of the dually in carrying heavy loads. I had a 2500 before this one with heavier cased tires on it. I was greatly impressed with the difference in the handling going to the dually pulling the same trailer.

Bob;

Are you keeping your Carriage on a diet to stay under or at 23,500 lbs combined? I have a family member with a 36 Carri Lite with an 05 six speed, 4:10 full timing and its all he can do to stay under the combined. He does not have the extra fuel either.

I have to keep mine on a diet until I change rear in my truck or get 04 or 05.

I'm right at 20,000 combined now loaded the way I am. I'll be OK with a 4:10 up to 21,500 lbs.
