My first TR6 did not have overdrive.  I didn't drive it very far over  
the period of time i owned it.  My current TR6, which has overdrive,  
has covered about 35,000 miles in the past 7 years.  This transmission  
needed to be rebuilt a year or so ago.  I could have either gone with  
the 5-speed Toyota or rebuilt mine.  I had it rebuilt.  It wasn't  
cheap, but I wouldn't have it any other way.  I can't imagine not  
having overdrive or a 5th speed.  I picked it up in Texas and drove it  
a thousand miles home when I bought it.  This past summer I covered  
3,005 miles in three weeks going from Atlanta to Michigan to the VTR  
to Canada and then back to Atlanta.  The only thing that broke was a  
snap on my boot cover which required me to screw the snap back in.  It  
was horrible... not!
