What kind of gen should I shop for?
We just bought a new fifth wheel and it feels like starting over again. We've only ever owned toy haulers that are already prepped for dry camping with onboard generators and fuel tanks.

I currently Have Harbor freight Portable 5K dual fuel genset. My prior 5'er had a Built in Onan 5500 LP.
Unless you use your genset every trip Go with Lp portable. They don't have the carb and fuel issues that gasoline powered units do. You also don't have to deal with gas cans and spillage
If you plan to use genset5 most every trip a built in is 1000 times more convenient that any portable.
Push button convenience means zero set up. Zero hauling, zero take down. Zero loading and unloading.
Check out RVMP generators if you are interested in a built in alternative to Onan.
At this point I have owned built in and portable. For regular use go built in for occasional use portable is OK but will never be as convenient as built in.
