My '05 Duratec always shows as right in the middle of the temp guage but runs hot enough that you don't wanna leave your hands (or any other part of your anatomy) on the hood for very long :blink:

At least for the '05's (I dunno what the '00-'04 model years did) I think that has to do with the fact that there is *zilch* in the way of insulation between the motor & the hood, all the heat has nowhere to go but up.
