Think of making my next truck one or the other. I have never owned a diesel before but am thinking of taking the plunge and just wondering the pro's or cons, one over the other. What cost comes along with the higher capabilities of the 3500 other than 2 extra tires. Thanks in advance for your insight. I searched this topic and found no returns.

they are about the same price when single wheel. I have a 3500 l5p single rear wheel and I think the only difference is 2 extra leafs in the rear that only get used with a heavy load. they feel the same unloaded and drive very smooth compared to the older ones.

Single wheel to dually? Yes. Single wheel 2500 to single wheel 3500? No.
