I drive a manual toyota, and whenever I’m driving won a hill or something, i’ll just lip the car into neutral instead of keeping it in gear. does this save me a considerable amount of gas? are there any other repercussions? thanks

How much gas can you save, on an average, if you coast for a typical 6 cylinder car versus a 6 cylinder hybrid.
With the price of gas these days, I would think that a lot of people would be interested in knowing the answer to this

Do you think it’s wise to shift your car or truck in neutral and/or turn off the engine when going down hill just to save some gas?

When i drive i often take the car out of gear and just coast in neutral to save fuel and rest my feet. I’ve been told that this can damage the car in some way but i fail to see how??? All im doing is free wheeling….
So, does coasting in neutral damage the car? If so how, when, and why.
I understand that the UK highway code advises against it, but then again i disagree with half of what they advise.

We have a Suburban which is costing a fortune right now for gas. If I put the car in neutral to and coast a certain distance, over time will that save any gas compared to coasting in drive without the foot on the pedal? What methods save gas besides getting a new car?

I’ve heard cars consume more gas per second of idling than per second of moving, but I’ve also heard that taking your foot off the gas lowers the gas consumption while you’re moving. So with a stick shift on a highway or going down a hill, do you use less gas with it in fifth gear or coasting in neutral?

Will it actually conserve gas?
I don’t mean putting your car in neutral, by the way. I mean not pressing the gas pedal and using the momentum from hills to drive.
