We live in AZ so it's hot and do not do much camping in our own state during the summer months, however we do travel to California, Utah, Colorado, NM, Montana, Wyoming and also some midwestern states to visit kids and grandkids. Summer in Missouri is not pleasant either!! Just looking for some advise!

Is the on-board onan the best way to go or is a portable one better? Never used either one before and we have camped in tents, popups, TT and now the big 5ver!
[RAE] I added soft start RV to each AC, can run both with 30A supply or generator, for the inverter depending what size your solar panels are, should be ok for keeping batteries charged. You could use a 10,000 watt propane generator, they are heavy,but coulld bet mounted on a rack in the back of your trailer.
