once you tow with s 3/4 ton diesel, you will not go back to a 1/2 ton gasser. It is so much more relaxed when towing, and you never feel like the trailer is taking control. Yes, the 1/2 ton will do the job. But the 3/4 ton diesel is simply in a different glass.
Your call...

I would also suggest that the OP gets their new rig weighed, loaded as they will tow it. The stated GVWR of 9000 lbs is not the actual weight of their Airstream. It is the most it should weigh when loaded. Careful loading and placement can have a huge effect on towing stability.
