I keep it in '3' around town and put in in 'D' around 55-60 mph expressway driving. When I first got my first SVX about 6-7 years ago; this was discussed on the defunct KC site and Yahoo SVX Club site. The therory was that the revs in the tranny would be higher, forcing the pump to push more fluid thru thereby keeping the tranny slightly cooler. I don't know if it actually works. I just started doing it and it just became a habit. I've also gotten used to the way driving around town in '3' feels. I think it gives more control.

Haha Larry, the KC site, I almost forgot about that place!!
