I keep my car in gear, and turn the key back to run as well, this keeps my odometer rolling, speedometer working, and alows me to simply let out on the clutch to keep my speed up as I coast up hills, this also prevents me from trying to bump start the engine with the key turned off...
Also when I took my drivers test years ago, they told me never to coast in neutral, but instead to simply use the clutch, apparently they felt it was safer.
