So far, I've only made short trips in fairly cool weather, but the highest I've seen is what's in the picture at about 165-175, which was about 15-20 minutes of low speed city driving and a few miles on some back country roads.

The only other time is my 4 mile commute to work which takes about 10 minutes. The needle is barely on or above the 150 line by the time I get to work.

If operating temp is 120-180 degrees or so, then it would be interesting to see how much higher in temp the fluid is in other parts of the tranny.
