Is it alright on the engine to take the overdrive off even if you are flying down the interstate at 75 mph with the engine revving up to 3300-3500 rpm's the whole time? Or are you better off keeping the overdrive on while cruising down the interstate if it only kicks into overdrive once in a while on hills? I've had people tell me it was ok to keep the overdrive on while cruising down the interstate since your speed is up already. I have an '02 Dodge Ram with the 5.9 L and 360 engine that is pulling an 18' Fisher F-18 bass boat with a 115 hp that I know is as heavy as the 620 Ranger, but I can definitely feel it back there.
