The automatic tranny will never go to neutral when you slow down or even having a full stop, you need to shift to neutral to make it neutral.

220 is not bad for a full tank. I havent driven my auto for awhile but i think it should be at 4k for 70 and then once you hit 90 it will be like 5.5k i think.
