Just had the drive shaft replaced and now it sounds like I am driving in too low a gear, rpm shows normal. if I drive at 60 mph the car sounds like it is screaming. can you help

remove the aircleaner intake hose and, check the intake air control flap for free movement
SOURCE: The RPM of Nissan Altima stays high when drive over 65 MPH.
No....the rpms differ from engine to engine and from manufacturer to manufacturer. RPM's are always higher at higher speeds.
Testimonial: "thank you very much"

Either the gauge is bad, the cable is kinked or the speedometer connector is bad...at the tranny.
SOURCE: I just wanted to know the optimal shifting points
How many gears does your car have? One of my cars has to do a little over 3000rpm to maintain 70-75 in 5th gear. My other car has to do about 3000rpm to maintain 65-70 in 5th gear.
It all depends on the number of gears your car has and the gearing ratio. The second car I have is geared more optimally for city driving and gets better fuel economy going slower than fast highway speeds.
Having driven several rental cars too I would say anywhere between 2500 to 3000 is reasonable for the average car. If you are driving a vehicle like say a porsche, bmw or audi they may have more gears and may be at a lower rpm at 70mph than your car.

with a 2002 Concord 3.5 V-6, what should the rpm be at 60mph? 70 mph?
I'm not sure if the overdrive gear is lost in the tranny, but the transmission light is on.
Thanks
