Is This Worth Getting???

I am wondering if it is worth getting an Electric Cooling Fan for my 2003 ranger 3.0 v6, when my warranty expires. Also Would it be worth getting a oil cooler??? Would it be worth getting these products, and will they help the truck any??? I saw some made by flex-a-lite, and I heard that they are a pretty good company. Anyone have any ideas on which product numbers would fit my truck??? Can you control the electric cooling fan by a switch in the cab of the truck???

Sorry for all of the questions,

Mike

In my opinion, the electric fan(s), which cost around $300 are not worth the small gain they deliver. The oil cooler might be a good investment if you do a lot of towing or hauling, for ordinary driving, I'd pass.
