Unless your car idles at 1000-1500rpm you're not in neutral.
It actually idles at like 300-600 (I forget) RPM. If I shift it into neutral while going downhill at about 55-60 MPH it goes from about 2500-3000 to about 1500 RPM.
Coasting in gear uses less gas than coasting in neutral. The computer lowers the fuel to air ratio because the engine is being driven by the wheels, and the gas isn't needed. 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.

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.
Yeah, Idgi it either, when you could just call them and make your conversation alot shorter, like example:
if you were texting and asking if they wanted to go to the mall it could probally last like 3 or 4 txts, which is actully a lot longer then what a phone call could be..
