Im guessing you have an automatic by that comment. I have a 5 speed and in 5th gear I run at 3k at about 80 mph same as you so I dont see why you think theres something wrong??

Re: High RPms.
your car may be equipped with the quicker ratio final drive than hers that would account for the RPM difference
