That is a silly old wives tale. Sure some have failed but that is why the word Coincidence was created.
Not that color dictates everything but what is the condition/color of fluid now? Is is bright red and translucent? If not, just do a drain/fill. I'm on the 5th or 6th one now at 331K, plus 1 power flush at 150K, still running like a Champ!
Don't forget to use OD override to aid in keeping the trans cooler with that heavy dual axle, which might go over the official 5K tow limit. Luck.
