Anyone done this with Coleman units?

If our RV is at 78 that is freezing to us. I believe two weeks ago it was 108 outside at home, I can't recall if it was generator or shore power but I let both ACs run, it took 2 hours to cool down the coach. I can't recall exactly if it was 82 or 84 degrees? But for whatever reason it felt a lot colder than 82 inside relative to being outside (not sure why)
When I first read your post I was thinking you were saying it was 95 to start and you came back it was still 95? Now that would be a problem, at those outside temperatures, don't expect it to be fully cooled to whatever capabilities it has in 30 minutes.
For your requirements or expectations, you may also look at getting a 2nd AC.
