what is manual transmission w/OD?

what is manual transmission w/OD?

Answer:

I would think it is a 5-speed manual with a button to push when in fifth gear for an overdrive.
SO, this is an absolutely manual in transmission who has a clutch? because i am also searching for a car that has a clutch so that my two feet will work, i'm tired of using auto transmission.
its a manual transmission with an overdrive gear. basically, instead of the final gear being 1:1, its got a further gear (usually 5th and/or 6th) that will be reduced further to help with gas mileage on the highway. normally .63:1 is a common ratio. manuals AND autos can have overdrive. early OD manual transmissions will have either a D as the last gear on the knob or will have the last gear circled to signify OD.
