Yes, P&G will definitely help more on an overpowered vehicle (such as my truck).

If you want proof that EOC P&G saves fuel I recently measured my idle fuel rate and found it to be slightly greater than my average fuel rate during my commute. So if my truck were just setting on a trailler idling while being pulled by another vehicle it would actually burn MORE fuel than I typically do driving with EOC P&G.
