Should I Be Using Overdrive When Towing?

[Soundguy]

Seems like most of the 3/4 ton and up trucks are already issuing these as standard equipment. Many of the half tons as well. My dodge and ford have them..

I would also highly recommend a trans temp gauge for anyone that tows with their truck.

JD4610, thank you, thank you, thank you. You said it so much better than I did, I said "when it down shifts I push the button, when I get to the top of the hill I push the button". I just finished another run to Kentucky pulling my horse trailer. 1750 miles in 32 hours, using OD and cruise Hey there's another topic.
