If you only have 1 13k AC it will run constantly and may get down to 80. Gaging on a 28 - 30 ft RV.
Wait until the monsoons when it is cool! not hardly that is when temps are still above 100 24 hours and now you have 80% or more humidity. We do not call it the dog days of summer for nothing. It is brutal until late Oct.
For the fridge we have 2 of these; http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/fridgecool-fan-with-on-off-switch/38134 It circulates the air over the coils and keeps your fridge quite cool. We have ours set at 6 (propane, elec. not as efficient) and things are cold. Be sure and put them both on same side. The batteries last all camping season for us.
Later fall, winter, spring is really the better time to come here.
Good luck
