The van we are recommending is a proven van that has been used for years in commercial applications, including towing duties and were never front wheel drive.
Even some of the 3/4ton vans are front wheel drive.
Just pointing out that 3/4 ton by itself doesn't mean it's a good option.
Can you let us know what the manufacturer/model 3/4 ton van you are referring to, so the OP stays away from them?
Probably the new Ford Transit. When it was designed to replace the Econoline series the emphasis was shifted to interior comfort, convenience, fuel economy and weight carrying at the expense of the bulky and heavy frame needed for trailer pulling. For 2020 the passenger version of the van carried a maximum tow rating of 4,500lbs where the old E350 was rated for 9,900lbs.
