Gene,

Thanks for all of the insight. Oh, and I use NICE-ON coasting if I am going downhill or need to coast longer than the DFCO will allow. Yes, DFCO uses less gas, but you cannot glide for that long. There is a section when I am going to school... that if I time it right, I can NICE coast for almost two and a half miles into the school from the main road. DFCO would kill the speed about 3/4 of a mile into it. Then I would have to work my way through the gears again, which uses enough gas. They both have their advantages, and I use both when they are needed. I am not being a smart as when I say thanks for the insight either

... It is people like you that help people get more from their cars, whether it be mileage or life... so thanks

Matt
