Engine braking or using Neutral and Brakes?

To each his own I guess. My point was that you're not really going to wear your clutch or syncros out prematurely with an extra down shift before you stop

To each his own I guess. My point was that you're not really going to wear your clutch or syncros out prematurely with an extra down shift before you stop and keeping the vehicle under power is handy when dealing with shuffling cars on off-ramp stop lights or the lucky just turned green when you've almost stopped city driving.
