We have been RV ers for a long time, but have never really traveled in this type of excessive heat. We are heading west from Nashville to California. Yesterday we were in Kansas and yes I know 106 is not normal. but ... we had the dash air on ( dont usually ) were running the generator with our basement air on , and had portable fans running for the dogs. It was 96 in the RV when we got there and our older dog was really having a hard time no matter what I did. Is it really just a fact that when you travel in the heat like that you cannot keep reasonably cool at all? We left at 7 this morning so we can stop mid day and hopefully avoid a repeat. It seems that since our coach is not cheap, despite being 8 years old, it would be better insulated that that!!!!! Since our basement air is insufficient to cool this coach, and until we can get to our destination and add roof air, we bought a stand up unit that vents out the window which is the only way we have survived at night etc. We have foil on the windows to prevent the sun and heat. Any similar experiences and or suggestions. At least tomorrow morning we head on in to Colorado to see son in the army and hopefully cooler there. Have a good day!
