At 35 to 45 MPH, locking out OD and staying in drive is better because you do not have torque converter slippage causing unnecessary heat.
At 65 MPH in OD, the TCC is locked, and the RPM is lower than in drive at that speed.
Where I said that being in drive versus OD is a benefit is at the speed the OP was questioning, not at 65 MPH (one of those variables I discussed in my second post in this thread).
