I'm still a little torn on the fans. I guess it depends just how much the stock fan comes on, how much low speed driving you do, etc. Keep in mind though that e-fans draw quite a bit of current which puts more load on the alternator which puts more load on the engine, so I'm still dubious of any significant gains in that respect. The one thing e-fans definitely do is help increase the service life of the water pump by eliminating the weight of the fan from the pump bearings.

well you have been close enough to Seattle to know what its like.

never gets reallly THAT hot in the summer but a couple days will get to above 90 and probably a couple weeks with temps in the 80's.

winter we might get snow once, doesnt get very cold, usually low 40s to mid 50's

so i dont know if they would be used alot or not? people just say that they improve mpg
