So whats going on is after driving or idling for a decent amount of time just about 15 minutes or longer, i start to overheat slightly, and both upper and lower radiator hoses are plump and pretty hard to the touch, both my waterpump (GMB) and thermostat (genuine Toyota) are new, it doesnt boil over or ever go to the red but its enough to cause concern, could this be air in the system, or thermo or something eles, any help is greatly appreciated

What is your current coolant mix, (i.e. 50/50, 25/75, etc) and what kind of coolant and/or water did you use when you filled your radiator?
What steps did you take when you flushed your radiator fluid?
How far up does the temperature needle rise above the middle dial point?
Temperature rising over a little due to AC or high heat is normal. Is there a correlation between the AC and the temperature when you observed it?
