Man it's hot ( or I need Air Conditioning suggestions)

[Ryan Wright]

Not sure how your coach is laid out, but: I've got the cruise-airs in
the basement. Previous owner of my coach added a fourth, roof A/C, up
front. It has little directional vents that I can aim generally in my
direction. Works quite well and the generator can power all four A/C
units just fine.

If you already have roof air up front and that still isn't cutting it,
then Pete's suggestion of a 12 volt fan is probably your best
(certainly cheapest) bet and should work quite well. It sounds like
you've got cold air in the coach, it's just behind you and the big
windshields are ducting enough heat in to keep the cold air away from
you. So blow it up front and you're set.
