eli5, what does the OD button do on a car and why is it there?

I’m assuming it’s the overdrive button on the side of my gearshift. 2012 Nissan Altima, base model. Everything I googled assumes I know more than how to change oil. Thanks in advance!!! 😊

Overdrive was a description used for a gear ratio that is suited to highway driving. It doesn’t matter, because an average consumer does not know what gear ratios are. Yes, this is just bad Marketing, ignore like the Macarena and stay in the lowest gear that’s possible – higher gears will only lead to wokeism and a belief in Big Climate. The higher the gear, the more influence Nancy Pelosi has over your life.
