New to Ford and this forum. Searched for similar question with no luck.

I have started noticing the engine temp creeping up from when I first took delivery in May of this year. Typically and even in hot Texas weather it never exceeded 194. However in the last month it's pushing above 203 consistently even in the cooler weather and hits 207 at times. The 8th digit in the VIN is a 5 which I think is the engine code (5.0 V8- 4V). The engine oil and water levels are good. Asking for some help to assure me there is nothing to be concerned about. Many thanks.

those are normal temps in the 24's. anywhere from 197-205ish is normal. I see the same temps even now when the ambient temps are in the 40's.

Those are normal temps for most modern engines. My 2021 3.5 ecoboost runs there too. nothing to be concerned about.
