have you ever checked the concentration of your coolant??

you can get a gauge for under $10 at crappy tire:

if it's not that then the thermostat is not hard to replace (at least not on my truck).... just be careful taking the bolts out - i had one break on me and had to get my truck towed to a mechanic (grrrrr)

if that doesn't do it then it could be a lot more serious - so go see a mechanic
