When I talked to Don (Thuren), he said figure $4K to do a 6" lift "properly", that most of the cheap kits out there cut corners somewhere.
Of course, there are tons of ways to get a 6" lift for just over a grand. I don't know how good they are.
Crap, 20" tires/wheels are just going to be too expensive.

Hey, did you ever fix the foam in your seats???
As for lifts, I saw a sweet Dodge with a 6" lift and 37's on 20's... It looked so awesome, the guy painted the flares to match the body... It just was perfect.
Now towing, I can put my trans in 3rd and keep it out of overdrive and do well over 2100 rpms on the highway. In fact, I'll be just under 2000 around 60. I drop down to 1700 -1800 doing 70 in overdrive. That's with 35's. So why can't you tow with 37's just keeping it out of overdrive?
