I'd stick with stock- which i believe is 87c.  If you run the cooler
t-stat the engine will run cooler... which is ok if you live somewhere
where the rig will be getting hot and staying hot- like the desert. Or if
you have a tendency to live in stop-and-go traffic you'll want the cooler
t-stat to avoid overheating.  But the warmer t-stat is what the bus was
designed for. It gives great heat in the winter- and summer :-)

cheers
