    yup I seen 210 on my 05 towing hard but the fan kept up
    and if some one had the rad out or dropped the coolant I have found that it takes coolant top off of about a week of working it
    may have had air in the system

    Just remember the coolant goes up and down anyway. Your temps are normal. If it gets up to 230 or better, then you have reason to be concerned
