3500 RPM @ 80 mph?

Is it normal for an 96 A6 Avant to be on 3500 RPM when cruising at 80 mph. I do feel it is a bit excessive...any thoughts??

5th gear? Unless you have a manual (rare for the A6), all C4 auto trannies were 4-speeds.

Could someone with an A6 4.2 provide some RPM #s for given mph, (say 60 or 70 mph)?
