Default Closed Loop, Water temp & MPG

Anyone know what the ECM perimeters are for closed loop?

I noticed that some of guys have engines that run relatively cool.
What is the standard temp t-stat for 4.0?

What kind of gas mileage do ya'll get??

There is a relationship between engine temp, closed loop and fuel economy.
