I'm not really able to make heads or tails of your plans without the query.
But any where clause of the form date_trunc('...',col)='...' will always
generate crappy plans. And it looks like you already have expressions of that
form in the view even in the one which you label "without date_trunc".
Instead try to write a where clause that the database can understand the end
points of. Something like (col >= '20070703' and col < '20070704'). That's
something the database can apply a normal index to and also something it can
have a chance at guessing how many rows will fit.
