I have the v6 limited. I am noticing that my temp according to the gauge on the dash is running anywhere between the line after half to the 3/4 mark.. this is happening while i am driving on the highway and also city driving as well. Also my fan does not work on any speed.
(blower fan inside the truck) are the problems related? or is it normal for this vehicle to run at this temp?
thank you

The temp should run around 200 degrees (around center). Chances are you need to replace the thermostat. As far as the blower motor. Many things could cause it not to work. You need to get to the motor (under passanger's side dash) and see if you are getting power to it. If you are, then the motor is bad.
Let me know what you find.
