Those of you who live in the desert, have you had any concerns with heat? My cooling system is in good working order and the prior owner installed engine bay air vents. My concern is an upcoming trip that might involve several hours of low speed quite possibly in 100 degree heat and would like to run ACs (roof or dash or both?).

So, desert rats - any common issues with the original setup? Any recommendations for additional fans or other cooling for either the engine bay or the Onan? I've gathered it's better to keep the clutch fan and shroud in place and not obstruct the front with any pusher fans.

Anyhow, if I'm over thinking it and these guys do great in the heat, wonderful! Thanks for the help!
