My fan clutch was kicking in as well as the electric cooling fan. It has a factory external cooler on it and like I said it was running cool enough on the level at interstate speeds but it went high when pulling a grade after a lot of stop and go traffic with some pretty good grades and then went to 215 on a real steep climb.
the fluid is still nice and red. I asked my GM mechanic and he didn't seem too concerned considering the situation. I think I am OK on flat ground but not sure I would feel comfortable in the mountains with the Jeep towed behind. Thanks for all comments!
