Default cool rancher

I am going to use my 07 rancher for hauling chairs and umbrellas on the beach in soft sand with hot temps. Is anything on the market good for keeping the radiator a little cooler? I just don't want any overheating probs. Can it idle for 5 minutes or is it better to turn it off between unloading and loading?

It has a fan, so when it gets hot it will cut in and should cool things off. I would however, turn it off is it isn't going to be moving again within a minute or two.

Add Water Wetter to the coolant. It prevents air bubbles, which are great insulators and impede cooling. Actually, the best coolant in extreme conditions is distilled water + Water Wetter, if you are sure it will never freeze. It contains corrosion inhibitors.
