If you're towing at or over the limits of a gasser SUV then I would follow those recommendations too. Heat kills which it sounds like you may of found that out the hard way.
A properly cooled trans that only sees 180-200°f, 30k miles interval is recommended but 15k is better. At 15k it's usually not wore out but instead a drain & refill is to get rid of all the suspended contaminants.
