The only way to avoid dust is to stay on the black stuff.
The vans have that man vents and holes you could never cover them all up. Just look at the one behnd your microwave or the gapping holes under our aircon (if you have Heron 2.2) not to mention the fridge vents (which you can't cover up)
The Poptop has a vent on the roof that is supposed to help keep the dust out using some sort of vacuum effect. Not sure if it has ever made a difference being open.
Trust me, I've travelled the
Oodnadatta Track and
Savannah Way through
Roper Bar with a Jayco Poptop and you will never completely stop dust egress, no matter how many vents, etc you try ad cover up. We tried covering the door vents, etc and I do believe it made it worse as there was no airflow to force dust out if it did get in.
Just be prepared to clean all your internal surfaces, cupboards and crevices at the end of the trip.
