Downshifting puts a lot of pressure on your torque converter, but i've never heard of a problem with upshifting on an automatic. I do that in mine sometimes, but like you said, it does seem to use up the gas faster. As long as you don't have the overdrive off to, you should be fine.

Just don't do it alot, because that's the only way you'll find out, when you damage your tranny, then you'll be forced to put a new one it (manual perhaps?)
