99 Camry not maintaining "normal" temp
I have a 99 Camry 4-cyl that does not maintain what I would call normal operating temps while driving. If the car is just idling in the driveway the temp gauge will come to midway (what I consider normal) and stay there. If I take the car out on the freeway that gauge will drop to cooler than normal. If I go back to city streets and am in stop and go conditions, the gauge will start to climb back towards the midpoint. This morning it was rather cold outside and so I was running the fan on hot to warm the inside. When I got to the freeway, I didn't have any hot air and the temp gauge never got above the Cold line. If I turned off the fan and got onto city streets it would climb a little over the cold line but as soon as I turned the fan on again it dropped down again.
Can I think that this is indicative of a thermostat stuck open or should I be looking elsewhere?
Thanks!
