The subject says it all-- we had a bad experience the last time we owned a Class B (1998 Roadtrek 190 Popular), in that the residential-type house air conditioner was almost totally useless if the outside air temperature was over 85 degrees or so. We're now considering buying a Winnebago Era or something similar on a Sprinter chassis, and curious how well the a/c copes.
Since there's virtually no insulation in such units, we're not expecting miracles-- but if anybody has camped in 90 or 100 degree temps, I'm curious if the unit can be made livable with use of all the usual "tricks" (maximizing shade parking, covering windshield and windows with Refectix, etc.)
roadtrek 170,190,210,ranger doesn't use residential /ac anymore -they use dometic cool cats-10,200 btu
