At 6500 miles, it's an "effort" to bring the oil temp up. I'm not sure if synthetic oil helps, but I haven't gone over 230F this whole week. Average temp outside this week 80-90 degree F. I remember seeing the temp gauge climb up very rapidly during first 1500-2000 miles but as things are breaking in, it's getting harder and harder to bring the oil temp up.
