How cool does your sr5 engine run?

[kileak]

Hey guys,
On the way to work the last couple of nights, driving on the freeway, I noticed the temp gauge barely moving off the cold mark. I was just wondering if this is normal. I guess maybe it's a good thing,but I would think the gauge should go at least half way up. Anyway, do your guy's engines run this cool on the freeway
Thanks

My temprature gauge hasn't moved from it's position since I bought the car &quot;Except when I start and turn off the car of course&quot;

It's always a bit over 1/4 and I'm used to it now..

You shouldn't worry..

Don't rely on the stock temperature gauge too much... those things aren't accurate at all. On the highway one time, this guy is driving a Civic and smoke's billowing from under his hood, so I wound down the window to tell him. He didn't even notice the heat! It's because those stock temp gauges don't work well.
