I've always put my vehicles in neutral or part when I'm at a stop light. I have a 2000 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer 5.0. I'm pretty sure this is a good practice. Does anybody have any different opinion?

If your transmission is in good shape and you'll be stopped for over a minute or so, it won't hurt anything. Constantly switching P/N/D could do some damage in the long run.

I would say just leave it in Drive instead of Park because it would would end up causing more wear on the transmission. If you put it in Neutral though, that isn't a big deal because you do that with manual transmissions when they are sitting so to me it would seem it wouldn't be an issue if you leave it in Neutral.
