car was being driven down highway when the heat cut off / potentially overheated and shuts off. was towed home, tried to do some simple things for repair. When car is started it will run pretty normally, maybe a little harder of an idle than normal but not too much and once put in gear the car turns off.

How does the engine sound when cranking over? Can you please upload a short video of the engine cranking and running? I want to see if you lost compression due to the overheating. Also let's run the codes to see what comes up and service the throttle body.

Please go over these guides and report back.
