normal for a brand new car?
So I washed my car this morning, dried most of it off.. drove down the street and back. When I got back I popped the hood and noticed a little bit of smoke coming out from in front of the radiator
This happen to anyone else?

Normal. Mine ran really really hot for a couple hundred miles. The temp guage was normal, but steam would come up when I washed it.

You know you can cook food on your engine, right? It's standard equipment. A baked potato is one round trip to the gas station with car wash.
