Transmission Cooler
Anybody install an auxiliary transmission cooler on your van?
I previously towed my 6k # travel trailer with a half ton Yukon XL 5.3 and 4 sped transmission without an auxiliary cooler.
I just upgraded my tow vehicle to a 2010 e350 that doesn't have a tow hitch which I'll add next week. Although a one ton I'm curious if I need to add an auxiliary cooler.

Just trying to get first hand experience from van owners.

The adage comes to mind, "If ain't broke, don't fit it" .

I didn't have room up front for an additional cooler...maybe a tube type frame rail mounted one down the road.
I did plumb in a filter tho.
