I had a Mazda that didn’t even have a thermostat and we drove from Sarasota Florida to North Georgia without it. We just had to run the heat on high the whole way, but we weren’t walking.
I haven’t been able to abuse other cars like I did that poor Mazda.

Uhmmm. NO thermostat would make the engine run cooler.
