Highway RPMS ?

I just drove from Memphis to Tucson non stop for the Duct Tape drags back in October. That was 24 hours and 30 minutes From Memphis to Tucson because of weather and traffic. The drive through Little rock sucked bad as I drove through it right at 4pm on a thursday afternoon. But on the way home I did it in 20 hours and 45min total time including fuel stops. Yes I accounted for the two hours for time zones. I was able to do this because I left AZ Sunday at 6am. I was going 80mph most of the way with 65-ish through Dallas. Set up is a 225/904 with a lock up converter, low ratio gears/ 2.76 gears/ 26.3" diameter tire. This is right at 2850 rpm for almost a day straight each way. Doorstep to doorstep is 1420 miles so that is an average on the way home of 68.43mph. Not bad for a 50 year old car.
