There are a lot of factors that go into how quickly an air conditioner will cool off the 24ft Fleetwood toy hauler so I cannot give you a confirmed amount of time. An estimated amount of time according to my research is 1 hour in high ambient temperatures like 105 degree weather. If the RV is in direct sunlight it will take even longer to cool down. From my research a 600 square feet area in direct sunlight requires a 14,000 BTU air conditioner to cool it down so I recommend to go with at least the 15,000 BTU unit. I also recommend to park in the shade if you can, do not cook inside the RV during the day if you can avoid it and keep the air conditioners filters clean.
Since we do not carry the Coleman Mach 3, I recommend the Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Single Zone part # FR65PV which is a 15,000 BTU unit that we tested at etrailer.com and it was able to cool the ambient air temperature to 10 degrees less compared to the other options. It also comes with a start capacitor, so it doesn't take as much power for your generator to start it up. Please see the attached video.
