Had a 2002 2500HD CCSB 4x4 and towed 8Klb toyhauler with it and can't say it was the most enjoyable of experiences. Towing on flat ground was fine unless you hit a stong headwind however towing through the mountains was a chore. THe 6.0 does not do well with the 4 speed (even with 4:10's)I had in that truck and spent a lot of time in 2nd gear screaming up mountain passes. Yes it would get the job done and the truck handled the load well but the lack of any real low end torque coming form the 6.0 mated to the 4-speed would not be my first choice for a tow vehicle. Mileage was 8MPG at best... Sold the truck last year and picked up a 2012 Duramax and haven't looked back.
