This is somewhat normal. The temp sensor out near the top engine hose inlet mounted on the motor has 2 or 3 sensors. One of the sensors tells the transmission not to shift to high gear until the engine reaches a certin temperature is reached. Your sensor has probably gone out of ranger and is defective not allowing the signal to go to the transmission soon enough.
