Driving in 3rd won't hurt anything but your pocket book 
You will use more gasoline in 3rd and the higher RPM's will wear out your engine a little quicker but you have to remember that most cars typically only had 3 speeds up until about 10-15 years ago. (like my 83 GMC work truck)
There are even cases where the owners manual will actually recommend putting your car into 3D instead of 4D.
