The rear back floor vent is not tied into the AC... there are no rear
AC vents in the Weekender...

Actually to expand on that.
Not only is it not airconditioned - it draws in the air from the sliding door footwell and then blowing it out through the vent behind the passenger seat. as it does all this, it goes through a box under the car that is close to some of the Exhaust equipment. When you drive long distances and then stop (say to get gas) this box tends to get really warm from the hot exhaust - and from that point on you pretty much have hot air blowing no matter what your settings are(until you stop overnight and all cools down again). So at that point, its often best to just turn the thing off. As remedy most MVWK owners use fans (either the 12V clip on style for 8.99 or similar) to blow cold AC air from the front cabin to the cool down people in the rear. I just recently modified a 110V 10inch fan (14.99) to be clipped onto the bed support that is much quieter and has 3 speeds and plugged into the inverter.
