gauge values

One of them might be for DEF level and other is tranny temp

I have noticed on my new 2016 Ford F250 there are gauges without numerals on them.
Does anyone know the values too these gauges starting from left to right on the dash:

Turbo PSI 0-40; what is acceptable range
Engine Temp normal to high marks indicate what degrees
Other Temp gauge normal to high marks indicate what degrees
Fuel gauge-I have this one figured out. $$$

Thanks,
Happy travels

I am not referring to the DEF or the transmission; they are on the information center. The gauges I'm referring to are on the dash.

Perhaps the owner's manual could shed some light on what they are. Y'know just a wild guess.

Well, if you're gonna talk logically, this conversation is over!

Once driven for a month you will know what is normal.

Normal is normal, high is time to slow down and reduce power or take it in for service. If there were actual numbers Ford would have 10x the issues with people that disagree with what is normal and what is too much.

If you think those numbers are crazy... well they are not.

Boost, water temp and Trans temp

They are filtered signals anyway so pretty much just idiot lights

You can see temp numbers in the dash display but I believe they are also filtered

I agree that after you drive the truck a bit you will see what it normal. I use mine just to get a rough estimate of how things are. The turbo boost doesn't move much unless accelerating quickly or towing a trailer. The trans and coolant temp will just hover around the mid point once warmed up. When the data display shows both of them hitting 200 degrees (roughly) the needles are pretty much in the middle.

Ford still doesn't put numbers on their gauges? The newest Ford I've been in was an '06 and I remember it didn't have numbers which I thought was strange. I would have thought they had fixed that by now.
I'm glad my Chevy truck has actual numbers on the gauges.

as pointed out, the 'gauges' are not in reality gauges. Basically idiot lights but not much more so values (numbers) are really meaningless in most vehicle. These gauges read info from the ecm/ecu and if you were to hook up a scan gauge you would see that they are not real world. Normal may be anywhere from 10-50 psi of something, water temp is what ever they want it to be, but anything over 220 deg is normally where it stops being 'normal'.

the numbers really mean little anymore IMO. You want real numbers then you need to hookup direct reading gauges.

This is exactly why they don't put numbers on the gauges. Ram takes this one step further with the engine oil pressure.....The Ram oil pressure gauge reads what the owner wants to see. It displays psi but it is determined by engine rpm and temperature. This way they don't have customers concerned about the engine oil pressure dropping down to 6 psi at an idle.
