We changed our exhaust brake from a 4th gear downshift that happened around 55mph to a 5th gear downshift when I release the throttle.

Worked great, no more severe down shifting when we come to a stop. I should have had this done a long time ago. This took all of 10 minutes to do as it took the mechanic longer to back my coach in than to do the programming.
