Insulation, observation, results
Camped 3 days at an event in a very hot environment on asphalt, full sun. The interior insulation worked well, picked up heat anywhere the metal body was exposed. We MFG magnetic panels to cover the back doors and windows with thin 3m Thinsulate covered with upholstery material. This worked extremely well as it covered the metal and stopped any more heat coming through the windows. Worried my AC 13500BTU Mach8, was oversized for a sub 20' van. By directing all the air forward on high cool, the AC didn't cycle as the cold air traveled all the way to the front of the van at ceiling level, circulated back near the floor picking up heat. This only worked on the high setting.
