Tom I'm not a mechanic, but I kind of think that an automatic transmission has clutches in it so that when you let off of the pedal also lets off of the power and really doesn't do anymore that if you were idling in nuetral anyway. I could be wrong though, and understanding automatic transmissions isn't my strong suit. Kind of seems like a lot of work though, and I'd guess that engaging it (in drive, in nuetral, in drive, etc) probably oughta be some wear and tear too. Again, I could be wrong. As far as manual transmissions go, probably would help some to slide it out of gear when... I only use my clutches for initial take offs in forward or reverse anyway. After that I just left back on the fuel and time easing it into the next gear. Saves on the clutch, and if do it right and easy enough, no banging gears as the teeth mesh.
