Was Muhammad was the Prophet like Moses?

I will raise them up a prophet from among their brothers, like you [you=Moses in context]; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
--Deuteronomy 18:18

Muslims often claim this refers to their prophet.
This  argument is actually self-defeating. 
Mohammed is so un-like Moses that they do not read from the looks of Moses in their mosques, except to pick-and-choose verses that help their case.

Muslims may reply that the Bible is corrupt.  But do modern textual critics find the Quran a helpful source of answers for their investigations?  More likely the Quran is just different.
