Today's word is "entomo-dynamic"

^We expect to tow our trailer 50,000 miles or more after we retire. Our last trip to Montana put 5,000 miles on the Cobalt, all in three weeks.

I don't have a trailer yet. We are going to specify a custom built trailer; I am debating whether to have the builder put an AC on the roof or as a wall unit. This brand has not done wall units as far as I know and I might meet some resistance to the idea. I also have to run the idea past the "aesthetics committee", the other member of which is my lovely wife.

If I built an after-fairing for the roof top AC, I would want to epoxy it to the aluminum roof. I am loathe to drill holes in the roof. Epoxy can be unbonded with a heat gun. It would leave some rough edges if I had to unglue the fairing.
