Question a question to all electric fan users?

hey guys i have been thinking of going to some electric fans but i wanted to get some replys from those who have them. 1) is does any of u pull an enclosed trailer with ya lightning and do u have heat issues if u do. 2) what kinda temps do u pull it in its like 100 degrees here in the summer and im just worried bout the cooling abilities of the electris fan.

3) if u dont pull anything have u ever had heat problems in any driving conditions?

Thanks guys

i have had two 14" ele fans installed for a while now and no heating up problems. im in michigan and have had a hot summer with no problems, i dont pull an inclosed trailer but do have a 23' boat that is pulled sometimes and no problems, factory guage never moves once it reached normal operating temps. dur to the cfm's of the fans i bought it actually draws more than the stocker will, and once u do the mod nd pull off the anchor that is the stock fan and clutch u will be gl;ad ya did..

Why remove the stocker if your going to tow an enclosed ?? If for HP..not worth it. IMO
If I were you, I would add an additional fan on the front side of the A/C condensor for added cooling when towing in comfort.
