Assuming they already install a Power Saver type of high-efficiency air conditioner, and since motorhome already has 3,000-Watt Xantrex wired to power A/C, the only thing that’s needed is for alternator to supply a little over 100 Amps. The largest optional Transit alternator (~250A) should be able to do that now, but in a few months the Transit dual alternator option should do 200 Amps or more easily. Running rooftop A/C while driving “should” be possible if only they size wiring correctly.

Days of running generator to power an A/C while driving should be coming to an end soon.
