I'm sure someone will come on line that actually knows, but I think electric fans work well for idling in city traffic and for the cooldown after you shut off the engine, but there is no way an electric fan has the horsepower of the engine-driven fan for high-power cooling on the highway.  Cars are designed with aero in mind and they will usually cool at any speed on the highway without the fan.  From what people say our coaches won't sometimes adequately cool on the open road without a fan assist.  True?  Although... in the shakedown trip on my new '73 I'm sure the fan never turned on - probably doesn't work - and it never came close to overheating.  so.....?  Mine didn't turn on right after starting and I can freely spin the blades any time.  Doesn't work, eh?
