Operating Temps with the 4.7L

Question:

If i drive normally(no hot doogin,or hard throttle)the
temp guage doesnt go higher than 210F.If it in the
60's/70's,its about 195F.

But if its at 195-200F,and i jump on the throttle,it
takes a bit,and she reads about 220-225.Of course
after a short while it goes back to 210F or a tad
less.

I never had this with my 3.9L V6.Is this just because
of the extra heay put out by the 4.7??

Feedback Guys...

BTW,my Dakota kicks ass.Put down a 5.0 Liter Mustang
the other day.Definetly way more power than the ol' V6
