Drivability not so much.... gas mileage yes. The ecu will keep those things running in some wild situations. Just goes into open loop and pours out gas... or on many sensors if you get a short to ground it will do the opposite. Or as my buddy cruiser has reminded me twice another sensor will cause the injectors to batch fire wasting gas.

The ECU has a default mode when it can't go into closed loop due to poor sensor input. Gas mileage suffers. Performance does, too, but what one guy considers running good, we may say it runs poorly.
All relative, especially to those driving around with dangling oxygen sensors.
