Outside Temp Gauge Issue

Has anyone noticed that their outside temperature gauge is slow to respond. Today in ATL I got in the truck and the outside air temp was around 79 degrees, the gauge read 49. As I drove about 1.5 miles the gauge slowly came up to 79 degrees.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Its by design. Its so it doesnt go up and down based on non-environmental changes. Its supposed to make it more even and not spike up and down constantly.

Mine's **** though. It said it was 110F yesterday when it was about 79F, and it wasnt even in the sun. The temp prob is under your passenger side mirror I believe. FYI.
