Keeping it cool?
How do you keep the inside of a large class C cool while driving long distances in hot weather? I'm thinking the cab A/C isn't going to do much for the House. Do you run the generator and roof top A/C...

Why sweat and be uncomfortable when traveling, and arriving at your destination???
In terms of cooling capacity the dash A/C in a Ford Class C is FAR more powerful than any rooftop unit is, its ability to move that cold air around is its shortcoming. Opening the rearmost roof vent solves that.
I’ve tried it both ways and my dash A/C will keep my coach as cool all the way to rear as the rooftop and generator can.
The dash A/C is also a LOT quieter than a rooftop unit.
No sweating involved.
Great....if that works for you. But I can assure you, on 100 plus degree days in the Arizona summer....leaving a roof vent open...not so much for us. As soon as you shut the engine off....the rear of the coach is going to heat up reeeeeealllly quick. No thanks. We run the gen and roof a/c non stop. Could care less if it uses a bit of extra fuel. We travel in cool comfort. :)
