It may actually be a coolant temp sensor problem - they do have issues sometimes. I'd replace that before anything else - they're generally inexpensive (in the $20 or less range). If, when you ask for a new one, they ask you which one you want, you need the one for the dash gauge. Some cars have one for the gauge and one for the car's ECU. Your problem is with the one that drives the gauge, so get that one.

With the truck running at operating temperature, squeeze your upper radiator hose. You may have to check it a couple times allowing time for your thermostat to open. Are you able to compress the hose a little when you squeeze it or does it remain stiff/solid? Your thermostat may be stuck open or even stuck closed.

I suspect you are right with the thermostat angle.
The new thermostats are the opposite to the old ones that used to cook the motor when they failed.
The new ones run too cold in case of failure and also up the fuel consumption because the computer gives a cold motor more fuel than a hot one.
Testimonial: "thanks for the response, I will replace the thermostat and see if this solves the problem"
