    You have actual numbers on your dash or are you assuming it's linear?

    Most GP's have glorified Ford temp gauges.

    That's right, I said GP's were Fordlike!

    not sure what you mean by linear,I was concerned at the higher than normal temp gauge reading,on the dashboard.the obd android appworks very well for its purpose;I've used it on subaru,ford,isuzu and a gm pickup. 6 bucks for the app and 25 for the bluetooth obd connector.the reading on the app showed a very stable temp avg.183-186 degrees
