yes because it will keep you cool in the summer and in winter keep your self warm

A thermostat is a necessity in a modern engine. Its job is to block the flow of coolant to the radiator until the engine has warmed up. When the engine is cold, no coolant flows through the engine. Once the engine reaches its operating temperature (generally about 200 degrees F, 95 degrees C), the thermostat opens. By letting the engine warm up as quickly as possible, the thermostat reduces engine wear, deposits and emissions. Leave the thermostat in the engine all year round.
