I agree its a lot for a thermo but I can say this...Your fans will almost never run on the freeway so those will last a lot longer...If your cooling system is in good shape youll be pleasantly surprised at how cool it runs and a little more oomph from lack of heat soak. Im lovn it!
This thing ran all morning on the hwy at maybe 1/4 way up the gauge. At 40 mph+-1/3, tops. it allows the motor to come down to a temp it previously couldnt with the stock stat as it would want to close and keep the motor fairly warm. Different strokes...

Next time out Ill take some temp readings out of curiosity.
