The reason for the temp difference is where the manufacturers have the thermostat set.

My 2016 F250's trans temp runs 200 degrees whether empty in spring or pulling 11,000 lbs up a grade in summer.

The weight sharing of the front and rear trailer axles changes based on trailer levelness (tongue high/low/just-right), and not on where the load is.
