Ok Im used to driving stick shift but my current Celica is an Auto. well my friends and dad are telling me that driving in city driving with the Over Drive on is bad for the car? And that i should only turn it on over 50mph? im still unsure about this as other friends of mine always drive with their Over Drive on. Does anyone know for sure about this?

engine braking is useful in some situations, dissallowing a higher gear is also useful in some situations. if you were never supposed to have anything other than nuetral, drive, reverse, and park, then there would be no need for 2 low range selections and an overdrive button.
