That is just what I have heard...Not to sure about it thostowaway said:how does it waste gas? I could see it using MAYBE an extra gallon over the course of a YEAR doing this. I will continue to downshift.
Only problem with that is you have to rev match or you're gonna lock the driving wheels. Besides, most cars nowadays have ABS brakes.JustANeonButBadass said:4. slowing down in inclimate weather
if it's raining or snowing and you know your tires aren't in top shape for the weather, it's always good to downshift while approaching a stop to not skid. especially in snow, it's the safest thing to downshift all the way down to first for a stop.
