I have an 08 and when I'm just cruising along and let off the gas, it sometimes feels like the breaks are being applied. Sometimes it coasts just fine. What's the deal with that?

Welcome to the wounderful world of high compression engines. It is normal. In fact, if it didn't do it you should be worried.
