Good day

I pull a 26 ft travel trailer with my 02 F150 Supercrew 4.6L (this has ford stock tow package on it) pulling up hill from Albany, NY this summer I noted the tranny temp sitting around 220 F, although not for long it sat there for about 40 mins. I dump tranny fluid every year , but I am curious as to what recommendations anyone would make? Perhaps a larger tranny cooler? With the K&N 770 Cold air intake system I can crest a 6% grade at about 50 mph.
