Hey, speak for yourself! I'm pretty far south, as it goes, about six
miles from mexico. And "The Bisbee district has the greatest climate on
Earth!"(or so its painted in foot-tall letters on the insurance office
downtown), so I shouldn't need AC, as long as I don't stray too far from
home :) But, honestly, I've lived in AZ for a dozen years now, never had
AC, think I can go a while longer. Simply not worth the hassle of buying
parts, keeping it charged, loss of power, poorer mileage, global
warming, etc. (not to mention the $500). 

It looks like on my van (an '84 westy) the door simply screws on where
the current vent is. Still haven't found one, though...

Two reasons. The obvious one is to cool the incredibly hot air inside
our green houses on wheels while driving in southern summers.
