F-150 XL 4.2L V6

  • Manual transmission
  • 141,000 miles

One day it warmed up and the temp gauge kept going up until it hit red. When I shut it off, the longer I waited to turn it off, the cooler it read (not a sensor issue).

If you're relatively good at fixing things yourself, just get a thermostat and gasket and do it yourself.
