In 15 miles of sand running at 90+degrees ambient Saturday (and with a total load of about 800 lbs), the gauge never went past horizontal. In fact, when I ran in low-range, the gauge never got within a needle's width of horizontal (probably never above 195). When in high range and experimenting, I did get to horizontal once or twice in some really soft, deep sand. Maybe 200 degrees? A/C was on, too.

Looks like my cooling system is working well.
Mine climbs often just driving around. I got to within 4 or 5 needle widths climbing a fairly steep hill near home.

Looks like my cooling system isn't working well.
