I just bought a 2006 Chevy Monte Carlo LT ( 3.9 V6 w/ 70,000 miles ). Temp guage has read midway point for a week until today. Today temp guage crept a few ticks above half and the fan ran for 6-8 minutes after engine shut down. Sat in traffic a lot, air wasn't running. Is this normal?

It didn't overheat. And my few usual parking places around town don't show any signs of leakage.
