If this is an automatic transmission on your 2001 Ford Explorer Sport :

Overdrive is the normally allowed position

It won't shift into overdrive ( " Top Gear " ) until the speed is higher

such as on the highway / freeway ( my 1995 Ford Explorer XLT is around

50 MPH / 80 KPH before it will show a decrease in engine RPM on the

tachometer ) If you don't want it to shift into overdrive then use the switch

on the end of your gear selector lever ( P R N etcetera ) and then O/D OFF

will light up in your gauge cluster ( when your towing something or if you are

driving in hilly country and the transmission is constantly shifting from

overdrive to drive )
