Trans fluid temp

Please advise normal expected trans fluid temps for both laden and unladen (not by Ford analog but by aftermarket digital gauge). I have '05, 350, 6.0. Thanks, Bill

Have always run around 165, 174 max under 13,000 lb. load. Yesterday got up to 187 with no load. Had trans tech do test drive with scan gauge and TQ and fluid pressure check okay. Guess I'll just continue to monitor. The 20 degree differential got my attention.
