I used this technique to get from Phoenix to Las Vegas, and Las Vegas through Death Valley... shifting from N to D to maintain a good speed while also taking advantage of regen. I didn't run into any problems. For reference, on the steepest downhill I encountered in Death Valley I was able to regen 6%. I was in Engage mode with 1 pedal turned off.I don't know, but there has been at least one report that shifting to neutral while coasting downhill keeps the regen from engaging, and they didn't have problems with the long, hot descent.
Like Tim, I'm on the east coast, and while I've got a mountain range to cross to get to civilization, it's a very tiny mountain range in comparison. Won't be an issue for me, I'm sure.
It's my assumption that regen isn't engaged while in Neutral because any time you use the brake peddle I can feel the pads grip the rotors.
