Under normal driving conditions my trans temp is anywhere from 150-165 depending on the temp outside. From what I remember reading those temperatures are fine.

Those are typical temps on the Ranger, that's fine.
The absolute highest my sport trac ever saw was towing a 6x14 enclosed trailer (packed to the ceiling) through the mountains in Wyoming. I think it peaked out at 210 as I crested the mountain.
