Trouble is if Ford gives you numbers that are normal but people have their own idea of normal so then cost of warranty service to tell the customer all is normal goes way up.
Who would just run at 240 coolant temperature and think all is normal?
If the needle is not moving all is normal. If there is an actual issue the needle moves up or down from normal. At this point don't second guess it... slow down.
Yep, the early 90's ford pickups I owned were the same way. Gauge was more like to old idiot lights, but people want to see gauges. Your either cold, normal, or in trouble.
Not sure if Ford did the same when they switched to the mod motors in the mid 90's, but I think this is a pretty common practice.
