Wow! Had no idea that this thread would generate so much discussion! Y'all's comments and suggestions are helping me learn and read a bunch more about not only coolant temperatures, but also antifreeze types and mixtures, additives, water chemistry, and auxiliary fan and A/C operation relative to coolant temps, plus more.
And, as a bonus, I learned that monitoring transmission temperature is both doable and simple in my '96.
I love this place!!
