Where in FL you are planning to stay makes a great difference. Things are much milder in Tallahassee than they are in Orlando or Miami and both of those are different than Naples.
In you get south of the panhandle you are likely going to need A/C 9-10 months but on the less hot day you might only need one to keep the humidity levels comfortable. If you have shaded outdoor space you might even be able to get by without air but that's a really personal choice. Some handle the heat better than others.
As mentioned above, if you park the RV in the shade you will dramatically reduce your A/C costs as the FL sun is brutal coming through any glass and on the front and rear caps of the coach.
