Low Coolant PSI??

So this morning I hook up to a 1400lb car trailer and load a 2500lb engine on it, no biggie but I figure since I havent decided on a monitor yet I'll hook up my solus pro. After 45min of about 40-50MPH driving my ECT never went above 204 and my EOT stopped at 201. They averaged at about 196/196 ECT/EOT. Great right? My coolant pressure stayed locked at 3 PSI. Is this great or is there such a thing as to low coolant pressure for these engines?

Better than 26 PSI!!!! Check the small things first. Cap, connections, EGR cooler (or bypass for delete) connection etc.

Turns out it was a loose nut behind the wheel. I didn't have my degas cap tight. On a brighter side its actually 6-7 psi, still good.
