Default 2005 Rx330 Temperature Gauge needle (picture)

Just wondering if everyone's temperature gauge needle shows the same thing as mine after it has been driven for a while. On my previous car Toyota 4Runner my temperature needle was below half way...closer to C..a little over the first mark.

Is this normal for the RX330??

Thanks.............

Yup it is. I'll have to take a pic of our RX330's during normal running temp.

Mine too. Doesn't matter if it's 100 deg. above or 20 below 0, mine stays right about in the middle. Guess that tells me the system is running at about nominal temp. regardless of outside temp. My Ford SportTrac also runs right about in the middle of the gage regardless of the outside temp.

Default Temp Gauge Reading

Looks just like ours (05 RX). Did a 4,600 mile trip (two weeks on the road) and went from sea level to over 13k feet, from freezing to 90 degrees, still never showed more than about 1/2 way on the gauge.
