I had several tarp garages over the years and even the best tarp seldom will hold 3 seasons and I am in the area that has trees for shade.
Then I put metal roofing on the frames and it works perfectly.
The radiant heat with a foot or 2 space doesn't affect RV.
I think building the roof with slight slope would help natural venting.
Than adding fans and mist spray should make big difference.
One time we went to a camp that in the afternoon had 105F (in the shade) and no tree protection.
We stop the Bounder for 1 hr to figure out the best spot for camping and when coming back I got burn on my hand from door handle.
Started generator and after 2 hr of running the 2 ACs cooled interior to nice 96F.
We dove into the lake and did not enter RV till 9 PM.
