overheating?

I was at the gas station today and a guy said that my car was emmiting a lot of heat. I was like :wtf: So i got out and checked and he was right I have no idea what it could be, the guage on my intrument panel said everything was ok. I recently installed my extended rear diff breather, could that have anything to do with it? Also, the breather hose is slightly pinched b/c of where i stuck it. Would that matter that much? thanks for the help in advance.

Sounds like your truck is running a mild fever. Take it easy on it ,pack it in ice (only if it gets to hot) and call me in the morning.

No , seriously...where is it emitting this heat from.

Mine only has that problem when the fan kicks on...so I would call that heat normal unless its just so hot that it burns you, then I'd say take 2 advil and call 86toyota in the morning but other than that I'd say you're fine...by the way, why was this guy standing so close to your rig? And did he just stroll on up to your window and tell you how hot your truck was?
