If your RPM is at 4000 in fifth gear at 70-75, then it isn't normal. If you see absoulutely no drop in RPM when shifting gears, not normal. Time for a trip to the dealer................

well, i'm not sure what you're still doing in 4th at 70-75mph, i guess still accelerating? when you shift gears, the the engine rev hangs in the yaris until you shift into the next gear, rather than dropping. my yaris sedan is usually at about 3200 to 3300 rpm at 75mph - so if yours is still sitting at 4k once you're actually in 5th, then yeah you should definitely get it checked out.
