Honestly.. my truck aint doin so well with the hot weather and the electric
fan... it gets near 210F as of now... and today its only 71F.... Cant
imagine what 90+ temps will do to her... I may get another fan, and put it
on the inside of the rad. or just go back to the stocker fer the summer...
dunno yet...
