Unless I missed it, no one has opined on a gas powered genny vs. diesel.
In the boating world, there are unfortunate deaths from gasoline generators in vessels that are moored in calm coves with little wind in the summertime.
Deaths from diesel generators are virtually non-existent.
The reason is that diesel exhaust CO content is very low.Gasoline exhaust not so much.
That's why no one is dying in the truck stops with all of the semi's idling through the night.
OP does not list his rig, so it is tough for me to give advice except that I never am concerned running our Onan QD7500....CO monitor always reads 0.
