Engine/trans/oil temps

New here, been reading these forums for awhile, so i bought a 2017 f250 6.7 back in january, got it lifted in may, and was towing a 13500lbs trailer no problem, engine temp got to 223 up an 8% grade. This past weekend(labor day) i was towing my 20ft trailer, no more than 7500lbs...temps got to 225 engine, oil got to 243, and trans got to 231...ambient air was 105-107.
just seems a little high for such a light trailer.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Looks normal to me. What's your concern?

Tip: title your thread appropriate to your question. You're not asking about heating; you're asking about engine/transmission temps. Cheers and welcome.

Sounds about right for the high ambient temps you were towing in.
