Yes, and that's by design. With OD off your fuel economy will suffer
greatly.

About the only time I think I might consider turning OD off would be if I
was towing something over hilly or mountainous terrain.

I pretty much follow the owner's manual on that one.. I seem to remember that it
recommended locking out OD if you were in a lot of traffic and staying under 30
mpg.. locking OD out stops a lot of hunting... shifting down every time that you
hit the gas, then back up as soon as you lift your foot at all..

I also lock out od on mountain roads where you're not going to be going over
about 40.. it feels like I have a bit more control, (like down shifting a
stick), and prevents it from shifting up as you take your foot off the
accelerator going into a turn.. YMMV

No problem, unless you are going up or down a long hill or mountain.
