Putting your truck in neutral while driving seems dangerous and unnecessary. Probably doesn't save you that much gas. If your worried about gas milage buy a camery. Just kidding!

Not sure about normal, but I've seen other Toyotas do that. They are not intended to be put in neutral under power, so anything is possible.
It is very dangerous to put the vehicle in neutral while traveling fast. If your engine looses power, there goes your brakes. In many places it is illegal to "Coast".
