Actual range of the coolant temp gauge?

Cold and hot just doesnt do it for me, anybody have any solid numbers on this thing? Red zone? Cold line? Midpoint?

I've seen mine hit as high as 51 degrees Celcius or about 123-124 degrees Fahrenheit in the southern Mojave Desert. I've seen it as low as -7 Celcius or 18 Fahrenheit. It can probably go lower than that, but I haven't experienced that temperature myself.

Your car has no thermostat and California is colder than I thought! We are talking coolant temp, yes?

I've got a scangauge on mine. Usually the Thermostat opens around 179* but I've seen as high as 220* while driving up the Cascades.

I mistook you to mean the outside temperature display.

A gen 3 doesn't even have one of those, of course I didn't specify it was a 92.
