So neutral coasting in an automatic, even with the engine still running, SHOULD give you pretty impressive MPG figures for the length of the coast.

It seems like GPH should be looked at, and compared to the amount of time for the in gear and in neutral.
That is, I imagine being in gear (with injectors off) still uses SOME fuel, and it will take longer to get somewhere (with the added engine resistance).
It makes sense to me- hope I am not mistaken again lol
