FINALLY, someone who understands how neutral works. now i would agree with you that perfect gliding in D is better than N BUT its far too much work keeping the pedal in the sweet spot, so shifting to N [ONLY at slow speeds in safe areas like streets] is much easier
Keep in mind pulse and coast will never be as efficient as pulse and glide. (done right) You want to just barely power the wheels to extend the glide and use up battery power. N does none of that.
coast = no power input? glide = very little power input? so for a long flat street glide is better? but wouldn't that only be if i want to continue forward? I was thinking of a long flat street where there is a traffic light ahead [or stop sign] and i want to keep as much speed in case it turns green but without any power input in case it is still red. I have a 3/4 mile and 1/2 mile stretch like this every day. I TRY to feather the pedal for perfect coast in drive but thinking of using neutral instead
I too coast to lights if my sightline is limited. Where i know a stop sigh is coming and no one is behind me to get annoyed, I glide for 3/4 of a mile 60 to 0.
