Genecurp,
Depending on the condition of your batteries you may be OK. But I'd make friends with someone who has a generator! Or buy a Honda 1000 or better. A 2000 would be even better. That size would give you everything you need in the way of power except AC.
Regarding the generator... any of the major suppliers would be acceptable units. The Hondas are probably the quietest most fuel efficient and dependable units on the market. Yamaha also makes a very good unit. Many folks have gone the Kipor or other China type knockoffs. They work but are not quite as efficient or dependable or quiet as the major brands. Believe me if you camp anywhere near others you want a generator as quiet as possible.
We went out on an outing soon after we got the rig. We did not run the AC but did run the furnace. Naturally it quit working because the batteries were discharged. Fortunately we were camping with a friend who fired up his Honda 1000 and got the battery charged up enough to get the slides in. Was not looking forward to doing that on a manual basis.
Good luck.
