Nope, I have a huge plate and frame oil cooler with a 12" fan on it. That was the only thing I could keep cool on the car during the heat. I was pleasanty surprised how cool the oil was after 2-3 hours of crusing around town without the trailer.
I pulled the trailer on the interstate for probably 10 miles in Tulsa during Monday morning traffic along with a few miles of stoplight traffic in town. It never got over 148 degrees. I know it sounds like a cliche, but I could hardly tell it was back there. I had it packed full of tools, spare wheels &slicks, 2 oil changes, 2 cases of trans oil, fullsize jack and stands, air tank, a weeks worth of clothes for two people and 15 gallons of gas.
