You can always take that out if the car dies though.

Congrats I felt like I had a lot when I turned 200k. I think there is one guy here that has over 300k on his and says it still runs like a champ.

Always on . There are too few reasons NOT to drive with overdrive on. It's not like I'm towing with the ES.

Overdrive is like the 4th gear/cruising gear in the auto tranny. Turning it off will result in having only 3 gears and the fuel economy will suffer.
As for your transmission, i think it's time for a 5 speed swap!
