Ha ha ha, that was awesome.
Just found him on the Zune Marketplace lol, downloading that song.
Wow that guy has no freaking idea what hes doing. You DO downshift down hills, you need the full control of the engine, higher gears you dont have that low end control you require. Also, taking it OUT of gear and coasting? That is the dumbest thing I've heard. Coasting is a huge no no, you have no control of the car, the engine is fully disengaged so breaking will require more force.Quote:

The engine does not have to be connected to the transmission to pump the power steering and brake fluid, it just needs to be on. Also, coasting in neutral is good if you're on a gradual slope, such that coasting in gear would stop you on said hill. Saves gas.Quote:

No, going down almost any hill in a low gear is a much better idea than coasting in neutral. When you're coasting down a hill in neutral, the engine is still using fuel. When you're going down a hill in a low gear, the engine is not using fuel, which saves gas. Using the engine as a brake is better for the whole car than actually using the real brakes. If you're on a hill that is not even steep enough to warrant switching to a lower gear, simply leave it running in the gear it is in.Quote:

Being in neutral reduces your ability to regain engine control, if a hazard occurs you have much less response from the cars brakes.
When I'm going down a hill, and I downshift, when the car is briefly in neutral you can feel the car become lighter and actually speeds up, it doesnt have the engine to slow it down. Which means I have to use the brakes even more.
Transmissions are technical pieces of equipment and werent designed to be put in neutral at high speeds. The gearboxs are designed to work sequentially from 1 to your highest gear, you HAVE to go to each gear you cannot skip a gear. Therefore going from neutral straight into 2/3/4/5 is unnatural for the system.
You can however, downshift and miss gears, I could even go from 5th down to 2nd, however my speed has to be right down before I change into second.
Like Xet has said, you do not save fuel at all by coasting. The engine is still running, obviously if your going down hill you arent going to use the throttle which is the real gas guzzler.
For Example: Entering my town, there is a long hill and a hairpin just as the hill evens out, heres how I tackle it. The speed limit going down is 70 mph, but I am constantly slowing down using the footbrake down the hill, I then get onto the straight section thats still on a down hill, I use the footbrake gradually to slow the car down, I get to a good speed that the top of 2nd gear will be happy with and I slowly bring up the clutch, doing so engages the engine and slows the car down even further, then all I have to do is steer around the corner and use the throttle to power through the corner, I then power out of corner and change up to 3rd when the speed is correct. - Simple!
Most important, you match the gear to your speed .

Are the rules different for automatics or something? My engine does about 1000-1500 RPM coasting downhill in neutral and probably 3000 or so in gear depending on my speed... I've saved a lot of gas coasting down hills.
Unless your car idles at 1000-1500rpm you're not in neutral.Quote:

Neutral is good if you want to coast for distance on a weak hill, but you might want to downshift on hills that are steep enough to keep you moving at the speed limit while in gear.Quote:

Why do people have to text Soooo freaking badly when they're driving?
I Don't even text, there's no point into it IMO.
Because texting is super-cool and like, everyone is always doing to like, totally stay in touch. Plus I just sooooooo need to get the latest gossip from my BFFs about that skank Tatiana, and the news about the latest clothes and styles from Hollister and Abercrombie and OMG. And, because my mate Jewel fancies you.Quote:

oh fuck. I had another episode of thinking everything I find comes from reddit. I clicked that, watched it on youtube, thought, "Hey, i should post this on modacity!" and posted it here >_<
Well worth the repost. That is quite awesome.
That is one of the stranger things I've seen in a while.
I saw it when it originally aired years ago.
I was so disturbed and confused about what I was seeing at that age.
I'm......greatly disturbed by the video....I...I don't know what to say...
It's... It's perfect...
Words cannot describe how awesome that is.
That video just made my year.
lmao woooow
What's wrong with #s 5 and 10? :raise:
