Texas.....You have the I6 engine I'd assume. Get a scanner and check the real temperature. Our gauges are junk. Might just be your temp sensor. Lucky you, for 05, it's located right above the thermostat. If your fan clutch is starting to go bad, you'd have a check engine light on our platform more than likely.
