Try 1800. Easily doable with a 3/4 ton.
So you are saying pull a 18000lb trailer off the rear hitch of a 3/4 ton.
Probably better off with a GN which requires 20-25% on the pin so you are again over capacity on most 3/4 tons. Not saying you can't do it as long as your axles/tires are within limits.
You can find a set up that would probably be 'legalish' like a 10000 gvw SRW and a 16000 gvw trailer. You are at the limit though and gonna pass some rated limits, but as long as the axles/tires can handle the load you'd probably be ok.
Just bringing this up as an example to research before you buy. An average construction company guy like me doesn't want a DRW because it is rated for too much and pulling commercial I'll be a target.
