Gear timing?

Hey all,

Got a question for you experts out there.

I have a 2002 Civix EX.

Lately I've been driving on the highway and find that my RPMs are at 3500 while cruising (not coasting) around 70-80 mph.

Now I SWEAR up and down that my car used to drop at that speed and run around 2000-2500 RPM. This made for a nice smooth ride.

Any thoughts on this?

TIA

Seems like the normal RPM for my '02, but mine's an LX.
