The cab is way too long if you ask me.

Would someone please tell me what the point of having a dually actually is? Does it increase towing capacity?

dually helps with stability when youre towing the heavy loads, dont think it adds to towing capacity.

In the '06 Ram brochure, the 3500 Quad Cab Dually has a lower listed towing capacity than the SRW. All the other 2500/3500's have same rating in their respective GCWR class whether DRW or SRW. Think this is why all the new Dodge 2500/3500's are considered Heavy Duty.

On older trucks, and other MFR's, there may have been different/optional rear axles available whether non-heavy duty and/or Dually. The Dually probably only offered with the best/strongest available axle, so the answer to the question "Does it increase towing capacity?" may be yes, just not on the new Rams.

No need for a long bed, the biggest reason for getting a dually is putting a 5th wheel in the bed, and you do not need a long bed to do that.
That's true, but it's till ugly as hell. The yeloow one Ross944 posted looks cool though.
