Gas mileage?

Does anyone know what is the difference gas mileage between with overdrive and without overdrive?

Another question, how often do i need to change the brake fluid and power steering fluid?

I had a 96 explorer sports.

Thanx in advance if u can share this info.

I dont know what the milage differance is. But you should think of overdrive as another gear(Which it is). You dont want it on in the city where you need to accellerate quickly. You want to use it at speeds above 55 all the time. unless you are towing or something.
