What size truck?
I recently bought a King of the Road 36ft 5th wheel. It is a triple axle, and weighs about 13K. What size truck should I realistically be looking at getting to pull it?

Dually's aren't much more expensive than single wheel axles. Get the dually and have no worries. Plus you'll be able to upgrade to a larger trailer down the road.
You don't need a dually for a 13k lb fifth wheel, and I wouldn't personally recommend one unless it's a dedicated tow vehicle or the fifth wheel size really requires one. Duallys are great towing trucks but they're worse in every other respect - off road, snow/ice, parking lots/garages, tight city streets, etc. Just my opinion.
