flipper,
You've got the right idea. Over drive doesn't need to be on
all the time. You do need to turn it off going up/down hills.
I have a friend that blew a trany for not turning it off
going up/down hills. His van was only several years new when
it happened. We tow a 23' Parker fully loaded with dive gear,
fishing gear, and several ice chests full of ice. After that
incident and turning off the over drive going up/down hills,
he has not had any problems with his van.
Hope this helps. <>< <>< <>< <><

FYI,
The Parker was being towed by a 460 Ford motor not dad's TT.
Also, flippers rig and our rig has a trany cooler.

Terry,
No worries bro. Just wanted to point out that it doesn't
matter what you tow with. Don't forget to turn off the over
drive when you need too. Not much worse than paying $3,500
for something that can be prevented by simply pushing a
button. We can laugh about it now, but the memory of the bill
still stings.
Good fishing to all. <>< <>< <>< <><
