My car is the same. On flat roads, I just keep a constant (and slowish) speed. I coast down hills and to stops. Gentle rolling hills are good for pulse & glide with cars like ours. Pulse up - glide down.
I tried a whole tank of constant P&G with my car a few years ago. I saw no improvement in MPG. And that was with engine-off coasting.
