Default Normal operating temp. ranges?

Curios to know if the temperature of oil, trans and engine are normal readings. (digital)
Oil rises up to 201
Trans 160-170
coolant up to 200 w/ 180 stat

Are these normal operating temperature ranges?

Those oil and coolant temps sound about right. Can't give any info on the trans though. In the summer my oil goes up to 220-228 and coolant with stock stat to 226 before the fan cools it down to 212 or so. In the winter my oil temp stays around 210 and coolant only gets to 226 if I idle long, otherwise its around 215.
