the good thing about the leccy fans is that they dont run all the time

on an efficient setup the electric fan should only really need to run sitting in traffic. Fan on sitting in traffic doesnt sap engine power and u dont need to go anywhere.

the toyota mechanical fans when working properly shouldnt be engaged all of the time but there is still some resistance.

i remember ed having a bodgy mechanical fan on his 7M-GE, it wouldnt cool as it was old and rooted so he rigged it to be engaged 100% all of the time. the car turned into a complete pig as it had to fight this fan all the way thru to 7000rpm.
