What a great little machine. We took delivery yesterday of our Recreational RTV and ran it all over the farm. As we ran it, I noticed that the temperature climbed a little closer to the "hot" than I liked. Didn't over heat, but then, we didn't run it hard either.

I prodded around and checked the coolant and it is fine. I noticed it has an electric fan.

For those of you that have more hours on yours than I have on mine, where does your temp normally run? At what point does the fan come on? I will call the dealer later today, but it is too early now and I thought I would ask the pannel of experts out there that have more hours of use than I do. I will be catching up soon though.

By the way... What a great machine.
Thanks for the input.

I have got mine in some seriously bad sitiutaions. No air flow, stuck in the bottom of ravines and hours and hours of rocking back and forth trying to get out in 100* weather with no signs of overheating. Though I don't recall a actual temp reading on the guage I can't ever remember seeing it being more than halfway.
