Any other CL600TTs live in the desert?

Hello,

I'm from Vegas and for now temperatures are manageable but I'm wondering how other CL600TT owners have coped with the heat in their city? I'm talking about engine cooling/coolant temps since we tend to run hot being twin turbo.

P.S. right now I'm seeing coolant temperatures on my dash at 83-84 on the highway and 93-94 idling in traffic, outside temperature is between 60-70.

Any advice

Humidity

Humidity solution:

1. Roll windows down
2. Punch it
