The oil temp warms up quickly if the car is not moving or if moving slowly, if you are driving at highway speeds it can take a while to get up to temperature. When I drove through Canada at the end of August last year the temp got stuck at 160F on the highway. The air was just too cool. For driving that time of year I think a thermostatic plate would be helpful, in the winter only a block off plate works.
