On one Class A coach we had, it had close to a "cockpit" for the two captains seats. The dash air would keep that part of the coach comfortable but the rest of the coach got pretty warm.
We ran the generator to power the roof air so that the entire coach was comfortable when we stopped for lunch or when we got to the RV park to stay for the night.
The fuel usage for the generator was negligible for a coach that already got poor mileage. Our comfort when we parked was more important.
Some people install a "shower curtain" like structure behind the seats so that the dash air keeps them comfortable. I always thought that it was better to cool down the whole coach especially since we had a large dog that liked to wander to the back of the coach while we traveled and, like I said before, we wanted it cool when we stopped to fix lunch..
