Possible to Install a Ceiling Fan?

Curious....as the dog days lie ahead of us, anyone ever take a chance and install a fan? The ceilings are high enough to do it if placed in the perfect location. Please share! Thanks!

My Cruiser came with one from the factory. Where did you want to put it? It has to be near a wire.

The fan electrical box needs to be real strong (i.e. solidly mounted) to withstand the bouncing and weight. That might be difficult to do.

We have a factory unit but it doesn't really do much good, minimal air flow. So I personally wouldn't put any effort into installing one. I find a table oscillating fan more effective and use it more than the ceiling fan.

I have an open area near a 12V ceiling light that is not attached to a wall switch. Though about putting it there. Seems like it's not a popular option, so, probably won't proceed. Thanks for everyone's input!
