Yep, been doing it for a little over a year. Had the typical hot weather issues with the a/c's not keeping up, but insulating the slide end walls (what idiot thought painting them black was smart?) with bulle insulation, installing bubble insulation in the Windows we can actually maintain 70ish in 110 degree western (dry)heat. During the winter, we stay out of the severe cold.
Did change tires to Saliun, had disc brakes installed, and have an issue with a wall stud that was fixed. Other than that, been good.

Did you insulate yourself? Inside or out? Just started full-time May 26 in HC 370br and had a couple of 100+ days in Nebraska.

Yes. I guess "insulated" is the wrong word. I got some of the reflective bubble/ aluminum stuff (might be an R1 insulator) and cut them to cover the ends of the slides. Than used some industrial strength Velcro to stick the pieces to the ends. While it doesn't actually add insulation value, it does deflect the UV rays, making the end walls much cooler. I did a little mod earlier this year, I cut the windows open in the foil and we use the same stuff on the inside, so they can be removed easily. We also had some UV covers made for the outsides of the windows. The bathroom skylight inside cover was removed and sprayed with FlexSeal white. We're currently in Salt Lake City, and today the outside temp was 98- 99. The bedroom is at 65, downstairs is 71.
