Default Transmission anxious to downshift?

Hey all, I have a 99 ram 4x4 with the 360. Seems when I'm driving it and go up a slight incline or when I press the throttle slightly while cruising the trans will want to downshift all the time. Really seems like it should just maintain the gear it's in. Is this normal or a common complaint? Is there a fix?

Replace the throttle position sensor. Common problem.
