    Your thermostat stuck open isn't the cause of the truck running hotter. Actually the inverse would be true. With the Thermostat stuck open, the truck would run cooler and/or never get up to proper operating temp.

    You are correct . That statement above was not mine I just copied and pasted because it said I should run a 195 thermo. I thought I had a good working system since it took so long to warm up and found the reason.
