I changed the oil and filter in the Dakota today. Replaced the Cheveron 10w-30/Fram with 10-30W Castrol GTX/Mobil1 Filter.

Is this normal when the truck is at operating temp?

When I'm at a stop for a couple of seconds idling, it'll drop to around 40 mark, but when I get going, it increases up to near the end of the mark around 40

Sorry about the crappy cell video

That's normal. Mine usually drops a little lower at idle.
