I use the tow button (I am assuming whenever I am towing).
Would appreciate any advice.
I will tell you how I tow with our 05 5 sp Alison. Tow mode is the best thing to use when towing. At times driving solo it can be used if you want to. I have. On our 5 speed I will hit the end of the shift handle to kick out over drive. This way it doesn't shift up but can go to 3rd if needed. Our truck seems to not shift down fast as I would like so this is how I run when we tow the 35 ft alpenlite. Trannie runs cooler in tow mode. Works great going down mountains.
Great truck for us.
