REPORT from the trip with 16" inner tube installed.
The tube did leave small gaps around high bed light/camera housing, so I might have to work on it a bit more. Making the tube oval would be perfect, so maybe some strap will do the trick.
To top it, the camper slide covers almost 1/2 truck window opening, so forget about safety pass unless you can move the slide, but anyway, spend most of the day driving when morning temp were in 110's while coming to Las Vegas I had solid 118F for last 2 hr .
Set truck blower to mid-range speed and in the time the camper interior without truck air could reach 125-130F, the thermometer on countertop did show 102F.
So I am pretty sold on the idea.
Hopefully with better sealing, setting truck blower to max and camper rear Fantastic to low exhaust, I could get the camper down to comfortable temperatures even in extreme heat.
Now 1 hr after entering the house, starting with huge evaporative coolers and than switching to AC I managed to lower the interior to 96F.
Still 1 more hr of full sunshine, so I will head for cold shower.
