Seems ok anything above 80 but you wouldn't want to try to accelerate briskly.

Over 85km/h in 6th, it will hold there and even accelerate from there a bit. Stay on 5th if you are towing. Power comes in at around 1750rpm upwards so if just cruising on 6th at 1700rpm, no problems for me. If you want to accelerate harder, downshift.

Mine pulled 6th up to 160kph no problems. How old is yours? Maybe the CAT is blocked?

2011 seems to be a bit better now not sure if the snorkle helped or nissan done something on the 10000km service but i can put it in 6th at around 80 to 90kmh and it will cruise nicely and still go when i put my foot down.
