Transmission Temp
On a 2000 F250, what should the average temp read on the transmission. On a phone, so it's hard to search.
Mine has been sitting at 190-200 all summer long with no problems. Now it seems to like 210 and a little above and it's cooler outside than it has been.
Now the times I have really noticed have been in city traffic. About to get back on the highway, so I'll see where it goes.
Tempature and any suggestions would be appreciated. I can't remember the Trans guy name here, but hopefully he will chime in.

Most will say around 170 is the ideal temp and that will fluctuate with driving condition and any type of mods you have done. In the summer with temps in the high 90's low 100's mine reaches 170 with in-town driving but drops a little on the highway. In the winter mine runs a bit cold as the 6.0 cooler keeps the temps down. I think the max recommended by Ford is around 220

I'm positive Mark will find this and give you real advice but in my opinion you shouldn't be running that hot unless you are towing.
