How do you use overdrive on a Toyota 4Runner?
I believe overdrive should automatically be enabled on any car. Overdrive allows a car to drive at fast speeds with low engine input (low revs) resulting in better gas mileage. The downside is that you lose torque. You should be able to turn it off for things like climbing mountains and using engine breaking to go down them. Unless you turn it off, it's already on.
E350 should you use overdrive?
Yes, under most conditions you can use overdrive. If you are pulling a heavy trailer, or the vehicle is heavily loaded, I would recommend you don't. If at anytime you a driving loaded and the transmission starts changing gears constantly, you should disengage the overdrive.

When should you use the overdrive switch in a Toyota?
You could use the overdrive all the time, it cuts down on fuel consumption, with no major noticeable effect on power. If you choose to keep it off... You will need to turn it on when cruising above 40-45 MPH, it's actually the higher gear on the Automatic Transmission, very similar to 5th gear on stick shift.
Do you put a 2005 Jeep Wrangler in overdrive when not towing?
I am a bit confused. Overdrive is a high gear used for highway purposes. You should always try to use overdrive unless the Jeep is under a heavy load or climbing hills. Thus when towing it's probably best to not to use overdrive.
