I tow the TT in my avitar. It's weighs over 8000LBS (not sure of the exact weight) and is 32' long. I towed it fine with my 04 CC and now will be hauling it with my new 08 CC LWB. As long as you have the right weight distributing hitch and brake controller, it'll tow just fine. Just be sure to use tow mode and keep it in 4th like the manual says and you'll drag that hauler anywhere you want without any problems.
No, the tow ratings didn't increase for 2008, but you'll tow better/safer with the larger brakes. Anyone towing 10k+ LBS on a regular basis would be foolish to do it with a 1/2 ton. The Tundra claims it'll tow over 10k LBS yet doesn't have a fully boxed frame like our Titans. Once in a while it'll be fine but I wouldn't do it often.
