How much weight can a one ton dually pull? If a truck is “dually,” it means it has dual rear wheels on either side. These trucks are geared toward the heavy-duty side of performance and are often referred to as “one-ton” pickups, as they can typically haul over 2,000 pounds in their beds and tow campers, trailers, and more.

What is the most you can tow without a CDL? For example, a truck with a GVWR of 26,000 pounds or less can tow a trailer with a GVWR of 10,000 pounds or less and not require the operator to have a CDL under federal requirements. However, CDL requirements mandate that the truck and trailer GVW not exceed 26,000 pounds and 10,000 pounds, respectively.
