I'm  looking at a Chevrolet 1500, pretty loaded with heavy towing axle and
a 6.x  liter engine


I think that is what mine is.  Came with towing package and towing  button 
on the end of turn signal stem.  Keeps it out of overdrive when  engaged.  I 
never use it and think it is only useful when having a great  heavy load.  
If I am traveling down the main highways and not a heavy load,  I want it to 
shift into overdrive. Transmission buddy said to not use  it.  The 
transmissions are made to pull!
