That's just about the bottom line.
Folks seem to pay way to little attention to this when shopping for an RV, whether new or used, and then struggle afterwards to try and work around it. Above "average" insulation and parking in the shade are the two best solutions. I'll bet it's an American RV manufacturers' issue ... I wonder how well the run-of-the-mill Australian RVs are insulated?
Few people are going to pull the lower cover and the registers when shopping to see if everything was installed correctly. Unfortunately, they depend on he manufacturer to do that. One thing for sure, to not upgrade a single AC trailer to 15KBTU is simply nuts. Even if you think you don't need it, you don't know where you might end up, and you don't know where the next owner is going with it. Skimping on that $146 upgrade may cost you a sale, not to mention some comfort in hot weather.
