    It was 95 degrees and I had to leave it running all day. My 20 month old son was in the back, between never turning it off, high heat, lots of high RPM loose rock climbs, and the AC cranked, temp started to climb a bit. I used to pop my hook when mudding my old truck to help keep it cool, so I fugured it couldn't hurt. Jeep ran for about 8 hours a day in idle or Low Range and it was hot. Is it bad to do this?

    Thats what I figured. When I go out if we stop Ill usually throw the hood up to let some heat out. It shouldnt hurt anything. Keep it down when water fording though

    Yeah I know that one, I hear water in the intake is a bad thing, lol. Jeep just got damn hot after several hour, but it was ot hot for the kid not to be running the ac.

    It is cool that we have the additional electric fan when the temp gets too hot though.
