Running the gererator while driving
I saw a reference on a thread here about running the generator to power the coach air conditioning and assist the engine A/C while traveling in very hot conditions. We have a smaller Class C a 22 foot...

It is easy for the dash air to cool a 22 ft MH. Different story when the MH is 31ft or longer.
That's when most of us that have longer MH's use the gen to run the coach air. I have dogs in the coach are so I use the air.
Just a note when you have to drive during the hotter part of the day just put van windshield sun shades under the day night shades to keep the sun out while you are driving is to slip under the shades and are easily removed when you arrive at your destination. You will be amazed how this keeps the coach are cooler.
A must IMHO is putting RV vent pillows in all the roof vent openings. Keeps heat out and ac cool in. This alone will bring the temp down 20 degrees when driving in real hot weather conditions!!
Put these in your roof vents and sit back and feel the difference in summer AND winter. :C
