You taking that 3000lb boat offroad somewhere?!? If you're just driving on pavement, you'll be fine (and you'll get better mileage) in 2WD.

I dont see any issue of using it on the ramp. I have a really steep ramp that i use often and i put it in 4Lo when pulling up the steep incline. I dont use it while towing on the road.
