I REALLY can't see the sensor being by the radiator..

I don't know where it is, but have noticed that if I fire up the truck immediately after cleaning the inside of the glass with Windex, it reads EXTREMELY low... As in -40F for about 10 minutes....

Barring the 'cleaning' issue.. it's been within a degree or two of the various banks I pass during my commute.
But if you pop the hood you will see that is REALLY where it is.

Mine reads -40 about once a week. Sometimes if you drive it, it clears out and sometimes it doesn't. I have noticed that if you start it and it does read -40, if you turn it off and restart it again, it reads the correct temperature. STRANGE!!!!
