It does seem like you need more vents in each section of the RV. You mention that they have a very cold living area, where the A/C is located, but to warm in the other areas with only 1 vent, for say 8 or 10' of the RV length. This shows how poorly the designers thought about the air distribution.
They could have put another vent in each room, and then it would have been equally cool from front to back. . .
It reminds me of a motorhome that I looked at once. It had a passenger side shower, mid couch. Under the shower was a grey line, going under the driveshaft, to the drivers side grey tank. I thought this was a horrible design. Not only low, and might get damaged by some road debris, like a tire tread or something, but also what if you stop quickly, and all that grey water flows forward in the tank, into that 4" line going up to the shower! You would have a personal version of a geyser!
I have never seen anything like it on any other coach that I have looked at! I can only wonder why the production staff kept building RV's with such a design, and the company never fired the designer for coming up with such a plan for the grey water.
Good luck on your RV search. It seems like that brand of RV is not designed properly, and the 'fix' might be that you will have to buy a second A/C unit.
I have a 30' Bounder with single A/C. I have two vents in the rear bedroom, one in the kitchen, and three towards the drivers compartment. It seems to keep about equal temperature all over the coach.
Good luck,
Fred.
