Ok, here is iteration #3, 27' with slanted radials 72" @ 45* degree. Note that max angle, gain, went up, and currents increased a bit.

If you can, check real close at all of the angle changes between the two, slanted and horizontal, the total lobe that is at beneficial angles for CB probably got better with slanted radials, and the maximum gain went up a bit at a higher angle, so check what happens at the bottom of the patterns close to the horizon and you will see that the pattern for slanted also raised up a little and there the gain was a bit lower than the horizontal pattern.

This is find distinction, and I don't see this making a bit of difference that we could tell using our radios, but the difference is not so obvious unless you check carefully. The only point for doing so might be to give us and idea for the trends that is going on here. Trends, rather than absolute accurate models is what I try to glean in these models.
