As usual with this question, we are getting the "pulls fine" answers. Of course it pulls fine...any diesel will 'pull' any Montana fine. Pulling is not an issue. The issue is the ability of the 3/4 to handle the pin weight. The empty pw of a 3400 is 2000, a realistic pw is 2500. 2500 is over the GVWR of the majority of 3/4 ton trucks...and that's before you add passengers, cargo, the weight of the hitch, tools, the extra fuel tank people like to add, etc. So skyviewman, as Paul Harvey would say, the rest of the story is that it will pull fine, but you will be over weight...your truck/your money/you'll be in it/you decide.
