    Auxiliary Pusher Fan for long Idle (K9 + AC)

    We did look into the AceK9. we ended up going with a Compustar Security with Temp and Remote start and tracking. if the temp gets to 74deg it will start up for 35min but then there is waiting period. we are looking at remote windows down with auto fans that would kick on after the Engine turns off.

    Hello All, From what I have read these trucks (2016 Ram 2500 5.7L Crew Long bed 4x4 SLT) have adequate cooling at idle. However I am planning on running this for extended periods which I have been told on a few different forums (non Ram) that is a bad idea. I have a Search and Rescue K9 that...
