Newer vehicles run hotter than the vehicle back in the early 80s on down. Back then the fan is always running since it was bolted onto the water pump. Newer vehicles have electric fans that come on when the engine temp goes up to around 210 degrees. the reason for this is that the car manf. figured out that the hotter a vehicle runs the less pollution it emits. Yes water boils at 210 however with a 50/50 mixer of water and antifreeze it raises the boiling temp to around 280 so the vehicle will not overheat unless your fan stops working. So your cavalier temp should be between 180 and 210 degrees
