6R80 so quick to downshift.

2012 XLT 32K miles... Seems to me the truck downshifts earlier than when was new. Either on the highway, a light touch on the pedal downshifts from 6th to 5th or 4th, or (most annoying) slow rolling over speed bumps (3-ish mph) downshifts to first (!!!) from 3rd rather than go to 2nd. I don't recall ever seeing it d/s through 2nd anymore.
I would think it should not d/s to 1st unless the truck was stopped completely. Anyone else experience this?

You sure you don't have it in tow/haul mode?
