Message: Hmmm. Could be one of several things. If an automatic, could be your overdrive going Chernobyl. This saturates the cooling system with the excess heat from the tranny. That would explain why it does this on the highway. On another tack, running rich can cause an overheat....bad O2 or MAP sensor, clogged air filter. ALso a clogged catalytic converter can cause an overheat. A badly clogged converter will literally glow red hot. First thing I'd be looking at is that tranny.
