Overdrive instructions

#1

Forum Ambassador

These instructions always amused me & wonder how many actually do the proper procedure. Seems counter intuitive when coming to or already on a steep downgrade where they want you to lock overdrive out. Then give instructions to press the accelerator firmly all the way to the floor to do it. Most are looking for a brake pedal when coming to a downgrade.
