I was wondering since the big rigs have 10 to 15 gallon oil capacities, do they have some sort of oil cooler and thermostat to regulate the oil temp? If they can go anywhere from 10K - 100K+ miles between oil changes they must have to regulate the oil temps depending if they are driven in conditions between sub-freezing stop and go traffic to mountain pulls in 110F+ temps in the desert.
I know in the winter they'll put the radiator covers on the front of the cabs to restrict the cold airflow. Is there anything else done to control oil temps?
