Whether or not the A/C can keep up with the heat load, depends on where you are, the sunlight, size of the A/C, and how well insulated the RV. My C, with a 15K BTU A/C, can keep the interior about 15-20 F cooler than the outside, in sunlight. That's about typical also for 28-30 foot rental units, smaller boxes with the same A/C will be cooler. So it depends on where you are going, 105F summer day on the Great Plains, still going to be about 85-90 inside until the sun goes down, unless you can park in shade.

We have been out in ours, 27 foot with a 13,500 BTU AC, when it was over 110 and it stayed in the high 70s inside. Tips to do so park in shade if possible if not park with the passenger side to the west and put the awning out. Use a cover on the door windows and windshield. Close off the cab area from the RV and close off the overhead bunk area and bathroom. And start cooling early do not let it get hot inside before you start cooling.
