Default Trans fluid temp

I have a 2007 Ram 1500 4.7 5-45rfe trans and wondering what normal operating temp should be for this tranny.During my 20 mile commute to work which is interstate all the way,it reaches between 160 and 170 degrees.Does this sound about right?..Seems a little high to me but I dont really know whats normal.I just started keeping up with that kind of stuff with my flashpaq.Thanks for help in advance guys.
