What temperature thermostat would y'all recommend for a b230f 4 cyl engine that will be driven exclusively in central florida?

I thought 82 deg Cel (180 Farenheit) would be best. Dealer parts guy said they always install 189 degree Farenheit thermostats.

Any brand you would recommend?

Is there advantages to those thermostats that have the little thingy that sits in the predrilled hole and rattles, allowing air to vent to the expansion tank?

thanks in advance
