I'm not suggesting the OP has a problem with their truck. But I can attest to my 07 LBZ Duramax overheating due to excessive revving on steep declines. Is a 2007 a modern truck?
The exhaust brake was aftermarket which may have been the root of the problem. Nevertheless the tranny would and did overheat if you let it.
Any modern diesel truck or gas truck for that matter, cuts all fuel off to the injectors while going down hill. There is no heat being made because there is no combustion going on. This has been going on since 1994.......at least for GM.
