Why does the EcoBoost on my F150 overheat?

It was sitting in driveway idling with a/c off in 30 deg. Temp for ten minutes and the fans come on high and temp gauge starts going to hot, give it some gas and it cools down and fans go off. I run 93 octane all the time. Also the fans come on high when driving and shut off as soon as I start slowing down.

If you are driving slowly or stopped idling the fans keep enough air moving through your radiator to keep your engine cool. Engine cooling fans may engage at one speed or multiple speeds and may kick on anywhere between 180 and 220 degrees.

I have the coolant temp enabled via forscan, 212 is pretty much where my truck sits with normal driving. just curious as to what “normal” for this truck is, and what kind of temps does everyone see in the summer or under heavy loads. I’m wondering the same thing.
