I am no expert on wear, but I practice option 1. This is no different than I normally drive with a warm engine though. I only P&G when there is sufficient downhill grade or utter lack of traffic to not disturb normal traffic flow. Lately I have begun EOC for coasting sections of 0.5 miles or more... Time to wire in an engine kill switch.
