Of course the cooling system maybe full of rust, the antifreeze is shot and the t stat ma not be opening all the way.

Before I removed the 2 sides I was seeing ~230 at 55mph on the freeway.

I just googled it and it looks like your Camry has a vertical flow radiator.
Time to get that rad flushed and the coolant replaced with Evans or Engine Ice.

Yea I do suspect the rad being old is what's causing the heat issues, as I said before, it's been at least 5 years since the radiator stuff has been changed. So Evans or Engine ice is the best antifreeze for my car? I read a tutorial for flushing my system and the guy recommended Toyota Red.
On another note, I'm not going to get good readings today, I'll have super heavy headwinds and it's chilly outside today, typical.
