My question is simple; it is in regards to the overdrive button in our Toyota Camry.
Could you tell me the use of it and what effects does it have on our gas mileage?

here u go bud
overdrive means u are using all ur gears. take over drive off and u aren't using ur last gear,
leave overdrive on for highway or city. take it off for steep hills, icey conditions, snow
that shouldhelp ya, also using the overdrive on doesn't use up more gas, it should make gas go better on the gallon

a basic answer turn it off when ur driving in rush hour traffic or around side streets and on when ur are constantly going over approximitly 40 mph

Or, just leave ir ON and let the vehicle decide which gear it requires.
