What would make your 2000 Intrigue overheat while in drive but not when it's in 3?

Sounds like an overdrive problem. The transmission is kicking in and out of overdrive causing it to overwork and get too hot. turn the overdrive off and try it.

What would cause a 63 dodge dart to overheat when a themostat is installed?
If you drive the Dart like I would (like a bat out of hell) the car would most likely overheat from fast acceleration, and more strain on the engine than what is needed. If you drive legaly, it could very well be the thermostat. Be sure that you use the correctly dilluted antifreeze.
Would blown head gaskets cause your vehicle to overheat as soon as you drive it?
it is possible for heat from combustion to cause an engine to overheat quickly depending on where the gasket is blown, but i would look for a lack of coolant circulation first. if your coolant is not getting out of the motor and into the radiator it will overheat very quickly.

It depends, is the Transmission over heating or is it the engine itself? you may need to have the transmission serviced, band adjustment and fluid change but either way in drive the engine is still trying to spin the transmission but something is not allowing the clutch to spin. i would just take it to a tranny shop.
