The fan normally runs all the time. IF it is not running something is wrong.

That sounds like a pretty good price OUT THE DOOR, now if that is before taxes and all-- I would not even bother.

There must be something in the air this weekend. I just picked up a 2001 auto today too. I asked the dealer when i heard my fan come on and he said it was suppposed to do that. I took mine out for a little ride this evening and it sure is nice. I played with the 4 wheel drive seeing if i could make just one front tire spin. even in the snow and ice both front tires spun all the time. Make sure you burnish the brakes when you ride the first time. it is supposed to make them last longer and work better. Next weekend i will be giving it a work out. my friend is going to make a trail to his bear stand and set out some bait. should be some hard work but fun at the same time. good luck to you with your auto i think i am really going to enjoy mine.

Good machine, but be careful that you don't get in deep water as the autos have air intakes and exhaust openings that will flood the belt housing. I am on my 2nd set of bearings and seals due to one screw up...Mine is going down the road and a new shifter is coming home..there are some ways to put snorkels on ..but that's not for me...OTTO..soon to be MANUEL...
