    In use cases duallies are for towing and weight distribution. They help with steering a bit, but for the most part that’s for handling very heavy things.

    In this case big truck look more manly go BRRRRRRR

    The guy that owns that truck would panic if he had to change lanes with a trailer.

      Dualies at least have widened fender wells and jist in back. They are nice if you actually haul 2tons+ (F150s say they can haul 2tons, but I’d never risk that much, 250s were created for a reason)

        This appears to be a 250 or 350 with some bewildering off road modifications. No serious trail guy would take duallies off road. But he’s got off road tires and a trail light system on the front bumper. Unless he’s taking a full size camper up the mountain this guy is just an idiot. Actually that’s true in either case.
