Which pickup would you use to pull 25ft 13k FW?

If you had a 5th wheel with GVWR of around 13k, what class pickup truck would you use to pull it? 1/2t truck won't do it, this is a no brainer. How about 3/4t truck? I think the pin weight will ...

Whats the dry weight of the 5th. And how much do you plan to put in it. GVW is meaningless. You could have a 9000lb 5th with 4000lbs of CCC. You need to find out the loaded weight and then figure 20% for pin. Work that number against you trucks payload or RAWR.
