  I was going to comment on how SLOW they are to drop but that's once 
you hit around 500F. Above that they do drop quickly. It can take a good 
couple minutes at idle to drop from 550 to 450F!  I gave up and started 
settling for anything gelow 500 usually.  Jake always waited for 350F!!  
On a hot day I could get out, go do whatever we went to do and be back 
by the time he was ready to shut it off!  ;-)
