As said many times, "pulling" is NOT the issue! Any diesel will "pull" any Montana. The problem is the weight carrying ability (actually the 'lack' of that ability) of all 3/4 ton trucks.
Check out post #93, a 3/4 ton truck with 2028 # weight capacity. That is way under the pin weight of most Montanas, not counting the weight of the pin box, people, tools, extra fuel, cargo, etc. Take 20% of the Montana's GVWR, that will be the about the pin weight. So with a 15k RV, the 3/4 above will be 1,000# over weight with pin weight alone.
