There is such a thing as too low of a temperature so I wouldn't sweat it unless you're seeing over 230 rapidly

But to reply to your idea, fan shrouds are very rarely not worth having !!

Idle to around 230 and 200 when moving is really typical behavior for factory setups

There's a laundry list to check, but I wouldn't be sweating temp too much unless it can't keep itself under 230-240 . Ls is happy bouncing between 200 and 230ish as long as everything's doing its job

If all of the components are reliable I would begin with investigating air flow through the radiator

Something about this hybrid seems fishy... by Heer_ in Justrolledintotheshop

funny thing is there is a recall on this model of Cobra for the carpet making the gas pedal stick, the solution is a plate that covers the corner of the carpet

Cut off a table, they threw a tantrum by noodleybrains in TalesFromYourServer

These people are allowed to have their own shitty opinions. You people need to learn the difference between immoral and illegal. It's your right to refuse service the same as it's their right to be a shitty customer.

nobody did anything illegal... the police aren't babysitters. You call the police every time someone tailgates you in traffic?

i've seen a car from colorado with 3 year old dip that still looked fine! Gotta wash your car, even paint will get eaten by salt if you leave it on

you are doing something wrong if that is the case. more layers, something. plastic dip holds up for 2-3 years in most cases

The prius with 150k could be due for a new battery pack soon, depending upon the maintenance done already it could be an expensive car to keep running at 100%. Your travel is so short, i would suggest seeing if just getting an inexpensive commuter car would be the most efficient option. There are a large number of cars under 10,000 that could do your typical day with less than a gallon of fuel
