Best Answer

Overdrive is the normally allowed position

It won't shift into overdrive until the speed is higher anyway ( such as on the

highway / freeway )

If you are towing something , or are driving in hilly country where the

transmission is constantly shifting between overdrive and drive , you want to

switch the overdrive off using the switch on the end of your gear selector

lever ( P R N etcetera , the O/D OFF light will appear in your dash )
