After 6 years and 150k miles on my truck about the only gauges I look at these days is the fuel, speed, rpm and gear indicator
Modern stock diesels don't need gauges for the most part. They are mostly dumby proof and will de-fuel or shut down in limp mode long before you can do any major damage. Tuned vehicles on the other hand have many of these nannies shut off(sort of like the older trucks without nannies) so it is best to have gauges so you can monitor these temps.
This is why I don't recommend tunes without gauges, and I certainly don't recommend someone who is not mechanically inclined and would rather have the computer do everything for them.
