Had an 07 classic (left-over 06) with the 4.3 and 3.73 gears. Got 20-23 highway on long trips, running tow/haul at 60, on 2-lanes it got 17-19 regularly. Had a 7,000 GVW 18 foot car trailer that I pulled with it, did pretty good up to 4,000 pounds on the deck, anything more and it really wanted lower gears.
Tow/haul changes the shift schedule, keeps your RPM's up to take some stress off the transmission. Keeps the torque converter locked too. Keep it steady around 60-65 with a light pedal and it will stay locked up in OD. There's no real benefit to running it empty in city driving, it will burn up more gas due to the higher revs.
