25 mph is an awfully wide speed range. I like a 15 mph range better - like 40-55 or 45-60. With a truck's aerodynamics, 65 is going to be dragging you down a lot.
Do you have a gauge (scan or ultra)? They help immensely for fine-tuning p&g. If you do, use ~75 LOD for the pulses. Focus on keeping the trip average ticking up with each p&g cycle.
I generally do uphill pulses, like 5speed5 described. I start pulsing at the bottom right as the hill starts to drop your speed. Start coasting just before the crest. You can maintain a more steady speed this way. You're pulsing and gliding your potential energy instead of kinetic energy.
