On the hottest day ever my car runs cool

I thought this was really funny, normally no matter what the temperature outside my car ALWAYS runs at 245/250 F but yesterday when it was 106 F it ran at 235 F. This was after an hour of driving and it stayed at 235.

Lol calm down there hero. It can mean either way I guess, or both, however you want to look at it.

Nice car btw. Love the color.

Tap the dial next time.

"The traditional white on black dials are the sort you get in war films. That you tap when they tell you bad news. And then they tell you good news. Oh no, I've got no fuel. Oh look I've got a full tank!" -Jeremy Clarkson
