rigid foam is anywhere between 3.5 to 6, usually if you have a Limited Edition or higher quality, you were up to 6.

According to Owens Corning, their best fiberglass product is rated at R-11. at 3.5 inches thick. The typical sidewall of an RV is only two inches thick at most, so the insulation is only about 1.5-inches, which means an R-4.8 rating. The Luaun panel inside and out, plus the outer fiberglass, adds about an R-2. A thicker 4-inch roof would give approximately twice that, at R-13.
