over drive explaination please
hey fellas,
you know that song " Hot Rod Lincon " by Chralie Daniels
there is a part in the song that goes, " took my foot off the gas and man alive i shoved it down into over drive "
First ov all, let me ask you what " Over Drive " is.
secodly, why do you have to take your foot off and hit it hard? is that how you get into over drive?

ok, an overdrive is a gear beyond the 1:1 gear...all trannys have a 1:1 gear ratio...where the driveshaft turns once for every revolution of the engine. On a T5, it is 4th. A transmission with an overdrive that allows the driveshaft to spin faster than the engine.
as for the song, he let off the throttle to shift.....

Also, both automatic & manual trannies can have an overdrive gear, sometimes 2! like in some manual 6-speed trannies the top 2 gears can both be overdrive
