It does not 'drive itself' and is not as good as my old 8.1 with the 4.10 gears, but overall it has done well. I try to begin my descent at the speed I want to be at, coast on the engine braking, use the pedal to brake the speed down a bit, coast, repeat until at the bottom of the hill.
Good luck,
Stu
