someone alluded to the tow haul mode in the V10. Use it. Its the button on the end of your shifter. That is usually sufficient enough for me to keep my speed down enough to stay off the brakes. It the grade is a real steep downgrade, I will downshift after gently braking to slow the rig down. I think as long as you are cognizant of the fact that you need to use your brakes conservatively, you will be fine.
