My transmission temp in my 08 1500 5.3 with 3.73 rear end got up to 230 degrees when crossing the Le Veta pass in Southern Colorado while pulling a 18 ft trailer with 4 atvs. I was at about 75k miles and a little bit concerned when I got back home. So I pulled the pan and changed the fluid and gasket. I couldn't tell a bit of difference between the old and new. Feel,smell, color were all the same.
