i by all means don't know much about the AT but I read in the owners manual for my mothers windstar it suggests turning OD off around town, I beleive it says this since you do not need over drive in this situation, plus this will give you more acceleration then if you let OD kick in

I can't see how not using OD can be bad, the 90's tempos only had 3 speed autos
