I would suggest a dually.  I used to have an 11 1/2' camper and felt very secure with a dually.  We followed friends to Mexico one year and it was scary following behind them with their camper on a regular pickup truck.

Subject: [RC] camper question

We just purchased an S&S camper. It's 8.5' long and 2500 pounds dry weight. It's the "new" kind that is very tall with the water tanks carried under the floor. We're hauling with a 95, single cab, 3/4 ton Diesel truck with overload springs. It makes me nervous to haul it as it's so tall it seems like it would tip over easily in a wind gust and/or by over correcting. I don't haul horses enough to invest in a 5th wheel, horse trailer/camper combo. What truck is the best/safest for hauling a camper?
