Anyways, my question is, on the really steep uphills, is it more beneficial for my FE to leave it in 5th, and put the accelerator to the floor in order to make it to the top (usually at/around 30MPH at the top), or downshift to 4th or 3rd and not have to put the pedal to the floor?

30 MPH in 5th gear? I'm surprised you are not lugging the engine. (Or, maybe you are?)
What is your RPM at that point?
