I should have added that this is a 20 year old (1999) RV so I am a bit surprised to have this issue "pop up".
No, I did not take any temperatures ... guess I should do that tomorrow.
I guess that for the past 10 years (that is how long I have owned the RV ... even lived in it for three years full time) I could have missed it but I think this problem just started .. hard to tell since the furnace does not shut down, fan keep going ... re-starts after the high temp switch cools off.
I though for sure that the longest duct had just failed after this many years and replacing it would do the trick.
Now with the longest duct connected in hard smooth pipe ... two open 2" holes in the top plenum and a side port (never opened before) now open you would think this problem would have gone away.
Maybe opening up the back port a bit (the one near the high temp switch ... the middle one is used now which is almost in line with the high temp switch) would let more air by it.
Even with just the 2" bleed Tee open in the basement, it is actually much warmer down there now than upstairs in the cabin.
Thanks .... Mike
