I just traded my 2018 PW on a 2021 Tradesman 3500 DRW with the 8 ft bed. The long wheel base makes the truck ride as well as my PW. I was super surprised at how well it drove so may be worth at least considering a dually. My wife will complain quickly on the ride quality of my truck and she has been happy with the new truck. I have 5200 lbs payload and 22,000 tow. With the longer bed I added a huge tool box(generator fits in it) and still have plenty of bed room. You’ll get closer to the 400 mile range on a tank of diesel towing I would think. I get 18 empty and 14 towing around 8,000 lbs. Havent hauled hay(20,000) or my tractor(11,000) yet to know what the mileage will be with them. And, for $2,600 I got the 10 year 150,000 mile bumper to bumper extended warranty so if any of the diesel voodoo crap breaks then they have to fix it.
