My 78 Royale has a reversible hooded vent that has louvers on the inside of
the coach. They don't do a very good job of blocking the cool air at night,
so I had a snap on cover made for cold weather. But, in warm weather, it is
open all the time. When it is hot and we are under way, it cross ventilates
really well. It is located in the 14" square opening that sometimes has the
rear a/c in it. We here in Oregon find that MOST OF THE TIME, we don't need
2 roof airs.

My PO told me to shut the vents as part of the departure checklist.
Does everyone drive with their vents open?
