I thought about this the other day when I saw a Hurricane at CW. The Axis and Vegas have to be the WORST class A RV to cool (at least in the Thor lineup).

That front window is not only huge it curves up to the sky allowing more sun and heat in at more hours per a day than the realatively flat windshield of the Hurricane.

PLUS we have TWICE the size SIDE window length in the cockpit since we have to sit further back with the design of our RV and seat placement. In the Hurricane you sit further up (about a foot or 2? Somebody get a tape measure out - lol) so it has a foot (or two) less side window lenght in cockpit than mine.

But that gives the Hurricane a foot or two more living space instead of the massive front dash of the Axis or Vegas. (But the Hurricane has a larger dog house since the engine intrudes more in living space).

Just something to think about.

Single pane glass has a terrable R value and we have more of it in a Axis / Vegas.

Just something to think about

So all of you guys with Hurricane / Windsport / Challenger etc with your fancy "Two units" need to do these modes and post your temps with your single digits results. LOL.
