Heyoooo!
I am curious to hear what everyone's high temps (BOTH Cruising and City Driving) are during the summer since this is my first summer with the truck. I've been hearing WILDLY varying opinions from the dealer, my trusted shop, and experts like Torrie.
For me, these are the highest ranges I have seen thus far:
Highway Driving (86 degrees outside, little to no traffic):
-Oil Temp 227
-Water Temp 223
City Driving (89 degrees outside, moderate traffic)

I'm also curious what the consensus on the forums feels like the danger zone temps would be for both? Torrie mentioned 210 for oil is the start of the danger zone, and I am very to weigh his opinion above all others. My mechanic just did an overhaul of all the coolant and oil lines on my truck when I got it, and they're sure that the truck is operating in tip-top shape and working perfectly - which is interesting since I get to 210 oil temp in like 20 mins or less on a hot ass day.
Love to hear your guys/girls thoughts!
