I like how you say there were several people who pulled that type of weight with a similar truck and the difference is night and day with the dually. You have now entered the group of us who now know what we didn't know. Congratulations.
I have a friend who rented a TT, 29', 7k lbs, pulled it with an 08 Expedition, 4 pin light connection (no brakes), and no WDH. He said everything was fine. I reminded him that all is well in a straight line in normal conditions, but he would have been in bad shape if anything would have gone wrong. I can't believe the company allowed him to leave like that. He is still in the group of people who doesn't know what he doesn't know.
