If the trans cooling system is designed to keep the temp near 190 even at full GCVWR on a hot day and long 6% grade all will be well.
Well, it isn't. They are designed to run around 220 to 230 under load. The cooling fan isn't programmed to hit full until over 250 degrees.
If this is true it's NoBueno in my book. The only time my trans has seen 190 and not sure if it has even hit that is in city driving in hot weather.
