Sepp,
'Glad to hear of your better coasting with the curved cap. On a slightly off-topic note: newer fuel injected cars completely cut-off the fuel supply while engine braking in gear. Depending on how new your truck is you may get better fuel economy leaving the truck in gear down a hill if you have to stop or slow down at the bottom. (You can test you vehicle by driving down a gentle hill in gear with the window down and see if you can hear the engine quit firing)
