Make double, triple sure that the thermostat is the correct heat range and was not installed upside down. Both are pretty common mistakes. Lastly, your water pump could be going bad and not pumping enough coolant to do the job. Try the first two first. I'm betting it's one of those. Also check the bottom of the radiator for a build up of dirt and bugs, etc. along a stripe about 3 inches high.

Why is your Lincoln mark 8 always running hot?
If you just flushed the system it has to be burped, take out the bolt at the top of where the hose goes in the intake and fill with fluid. Keep squeezing the hose to get the air out and continue to do this. If that's not your problem then maybe the thermostat is stuck and will have to be changed.
Your car is leaking yellow rusty water Does a radiator leak normally give out that type of water?
Yes, this sounds like coolant from a cooling system that has been neglected and not flushed and changed regularly. Have the leak fixed, a new thermostat installed, a fresh mix of 50/50 coolant installed, and bleed the system.
If you are cold how do you get warm?
Ensure you have the cooling system pressure flushed every two years and just as importantly replace the thermostat every year ( 194 degree )
