Smarter drivers than you shift into neutral on long stops. Your foot should still be on the brakes to keep you at the same location.
Like my father used to say, "Ideas are a dime a dozen." Nomen's "ideas" are often born from ignorance of the details and frustration in not being able to execute ideas in his personal life. That's just my opinion.
Thats why new cars in a couple years will shut the engine off when your stopped. The Hybrid Silverado was a testbed for this and it will be incorporated into most models soon.
Oh God no.
So, pick a lower gear with your auto-stick when you're stuck in traffic...
