The weight on the front of the unit is another concern, along with the loss of one compartment, in an already limited configuration. I would probably go with a portable generator next time for my use of this equipment.
I considered for some time purchasing an Onan and having it installed. I just could not justify the cost vs the amount of time I would use it. But I am considering a portable generator so I can put it in the bed of the truck and us it to power my refrig and one air conditioner when I am traveling. I would like to run the AC prior to getting to the RV park so the trailer is cooled down. I am not sure how to get power from generator to trailer. Any one have any ideas???
