Cruzin' in Neutral
OK - Here's the deal. I need the boards advice. A buddy of my owns a '69 Chevelle with the 350/350 combo. My truck has the same combo. When we go down a long hill on the HWY, he puts his car in neutral to "save gas". Then he puts it back in drive and away we go. Is that safe on the transmissiion? He has been doing it for years and he said it isn't hurting the transmission. Is this true? I don't think it can be doing any good on the transmission. How does the transmission know to go back in 3rd gear when put into drive again while cruzin at 60+ MPH in Neutral? Thanks for any and all input.
