   Is red-lining worse, better, or the same when the engine is driving the   
   wheels as when the wheels are driving the engine?   
      
   I use the engine to slow down when going down hill, and today, for   
   example, I put the ATransmission into 2nd and then engine went briefly   
   to 5500, the apparent red line.   For several seconds was at 5000 and   
   even longer at 4500.
