To the OP, a 99 Dodge Cummins in and of itself is absolutely able to haul a TC.
How big depends on what it is, how it’s set up and what you’re comfortable with.

The biggest thing for you to look at imo, is the miles and Condition of the truck.
At 20 years old, it could have a lot of issues and not be fit to haul or it could be a great truck. But given your perceived lack of knowledge about vehicles, proceed with caution. The wrong vehicle could cost more in repairs and downtime than you paid for it.
