Underpowered?

Underpowered?
I have a 2002 4runner limited. I'm having major problems onthe highwayat around 75-78 mph while on cruise control. It is constantly hunting through gears while ascending even the smalles of hills. It seems that my car is EXTREMELY underpowered or something is set wrong with my cruise control. My engine rpm go high and it launches me over the top of the hill sometimes as fast as 85 mph. I can't imagine this is normal. I'm sure it's taking a toll on my transmission and I can't take it anymore. Is there anything that can be done to help this?
