Manual vs Automatic transmission in TV
Would it be beneficial to have a manual transmission in the TV to help with getting the trailer up steep mountains?

Most of the modern automatics have a manual mode that will hold whatever gear is selected. The only time it will shift by its self in manual is if you go beyond redline or lug the engine. Both are designed to protect the engine.
Most have a paddle shift if you want to go up or down a gear.
I have never had a heating problem with my Allison transmission.
Most automatics will go 200k with no problem. I doubt you can get 200k from a manual transmission clutch.
