I put it in neutral the other day on the hwy and when I dropped it back into drive it was like it came back into gear in third (regular drive), wound up for a second and then shifted into overdrive. So I thought that might not be that great to do. It's like the computer has to re initiate the trans into top gear before it decides to put it in overdrive. Works fine when you're not up to speed for overdrive, I'll probably keep my neutral coasts to below 60.
