The transmission on the Buick will kick out of TCC lockup when I neutral-coasted on the highway. So I stopped, to prevent the TCC lockup solenoid from frying. The transmission will let the car coast for forever anyhow. The owners manual says not to flat-tow the car, so I stopped neutral-coasting the Buick. No DFCO either, just the engine goes to near-idle levels of fuel injected, like 0.50 GPH of fuel. Warm idle is 0.40 GPH.
The Honda Fit I drive occasionally will gladly EOC, and is flat-towable. DFCO is useful on the hills around here.
