Question Ford Aveo computer change Rpm shift?

My 2001 Nissan Sentra got 32 mpg around town. It died.

My 2007 Aveo is getting 24-26.

I am sure it is the lousy high shifting. I would shift my Sentra @ 18-20K rpm. Every gear on this ford is high. The highest limit in my drive is 40 mph. This dang Thing shifts@ 33Rpm@ 45 mph.
The questions: can U take it somewhere and ask them to shift this thing lower?
It drives me crazy pul|ing out slow and this thing reving so high and there is nothing I can do. What should I do, go faster so it will just shift? Tapping the gas can help it shift, but I don't really understand how to do it accurately...

frustrated...
