Another thing to consider, is that the Onans are all straight generators, meaning that they run at idle with no load, or they run wide open with even the smallest load. For all practical purposes, they run wide open all the time. The advantage to "outboard" generators is that you can get an inverter-style generator, which only runs as fast as is needed for a given load. Much, much more efficient, fuel-wise. Like the Onans, they can be had with remote start and have hour meters. For the life of me, I simply can't figure out why there aren't other companies making gen-packs like Onan, but with inverters. :h
