What is normal operating temperature? I have a 2004 Tahoe and I changed my thermostat and now my temp only gets to 180°, Is this normal?

PetaGriffn says:

Why remove the serpentine belt? I did mine very easily without removing it

Gary Schultz says:

Starting in 2004 they eliminated the radiator drain plug. You need to remove the lower radiator hose to drain the radiator. Anyway you could add to this video or supplement to show this?
