I'll say it again: the truck had been off for 2 minutes after driving. If you look, the tach is at 0 rpm.
I took the picture to show that I've finally turned over 161k after 3 years of ownership.

smh

I was always under the impression that a vehicle will get hotter for a few minutes right after it's turned off, since the cooling system is no longer in play.

That's why if you overheat on the road you simply pull over and let it idle, not turn it off.....
