transmission oil change (not much came out)

Finally did my transmission oil change. and ran the trans x through it day before...

I drained and dropped the pan , changed the filter... and not much fluid came out. Probably only 3 quarts. I tried the start and stop of the engine to get the torque converter drain plug accessible and that wasn't working for me, but after I thought through things, my fluid looked and smelled great, so what I plan on doing is probably another spill and fill in 6-12 months...

I was expecting much more fluid to come out, I tried to do it warm...is that common

You've got to drain the torque converter as well.
