The guage Rich refered to looks like a great setup. If you went with the convensional guages, there are three I would recommend, and two of those I would say are must haves. A boost guage is nice to have, a pyro guage is almost manditory if you're towing, in order to watch your exhaust temps (to high and the turbo fries), and last, the trans temp ( again, to high and the trans goes south). As for the gear to use for up and down hill, as was said before, the transmission will find the gear it likes best. When going up hill, if your transmission shifts up and down, drop down to the lower gear until you return to the flats when the tranny doesn't over work itself. For down hill, find a gear that keeps the speed in a range you're comfortable with. You've got a great tow vehicle there.
