In Arizona, in the summer under no load, I tend to see what you see; probably in the 145-165 degree range. But, if I start pulling a trailer up a long hill like the one out of Indio headed east on I-10 in the Mojave Desert, it will get up to 210+ in a hurry. I've never seen mine above 215, even pulling the trailer over 11,000+ foot passes in Colorado, but if the torque converter is unlocked, the heat is going to go up.
I DO have a transmission cooler though, and that probably limits it from getting hotter.

And Jeremy, you're right. It's easy to see it get up in the 170-180 range in a hot summer drive when the torque converter unlocks (and it doesn't take much for that to happen).

Transmission temps will vary. We all drive under different conditions. Ambient temperature, elevation, weight in the bed, towing, et cetera. If you are worried about overheating the transmission, then look into coolers & deeper pans. As long as you're not going over 200, then you have nothing to worry about.
