I think I was thinking more along the lines of leveraging the 3 tanks already on the trailer and the BBQ quick connect. Also remember it is still TRI mode if you chose to use gas. I guess it all depends on how often you are using that generator and all the gas in the jerry can.
So, you never use the stove, turn off your fridge while you travel, and never ever use the furnace? If you use any of those things you WILL have to fill your propane tanks, if you add a generator, you will have to refill a little sooner! To have the extra step of getting and then storing gasoline is silly at least for me! Add in the benefits of running on propane, much longer times between oil changes, much cleaner burning than gasoline, no gummed up carburetors or sticking injectors, almost never have to change spark plugs, not worries of the tank rusting, no spilling gasoline, no stinky gasoline tanks in the bed of the TV or basement, this to me would far out weigh having to get your propane tanks refilled once in a while!
I assume you were replying to the wrong reply as I was basically saying the same thing that you replied with??
I can see benefits to it over carrying/storing and gumming up gas. But my situation may be different than some others...
Glad it was posted.
