Upgrading your 13.5K BTU unit to a 15K BTU unit would help - minimally.
Putting an insulating curtain behind the cab to separate the cab area from the living area may help.
Putting a dump vent in the A/C cover helps - in that local area.

Your biggest relief will be to add a second AC in place of one of your vents. You will double your cooling capacity with another 13.5K BTU unit.
The curtain helps a lot!

I took all the drawers out and put Reflectix on the outside walls, behind the couch etc.

I been wanting to try closing the bed room slide during the day, a few less cubic feet to cool.
