Once it has become heat-soaked the cooler will also keep the camera HOT so 
unless you like baked film and runny lubricants I suggest you open the 
cooler whenever it's hotter inside the cooler than the ambient air in the 
truck.  In humid climates you might have problems with condensation when you 
take the cool camera outside.
