Question about EOC. I thought most modern cars have DFCO. I don't have any kind of MPG gauge yet (awaiting appropriations committee approval) so I am unable to test this myself except tank-to-tank averages.

Would it be better to do EOC or DFCO? Does it depend on conditions?

Also, for us automatic transmission drivers, is there any wear on the transmission to be concerned about for putting it in neutral and back so much with EOC?

My house is about 300 vertical feet higher then where I work so I can do a lot of coasting. Currently leaving it in gear and relying on DFCO.
