How do you know the onboard generator burns 1/gal per hr? That seems really high even running the AC. Also, I am certain somewhere in your contract you are going to be charged for generator usage by the hour. So it's not just the cost of fuel,but the cost of the charge at the rental company for the hours used. It adds up. But read the fine print. There maybe a clause in your contract that you are not allowed to use another generator to power the unit. Either the onboard generator or an approved power supply, like at a campground. If something were to happen to the electrical system, and they knew it was from another generator, it could be on you to pay to fix it.
We used to own an RV rental business, I assure you there are charges for miles per day, generator usage, cleaning fees etc. The cost of the rental itself is only part of the cost and read your fine print. We used to mandate no boondocking, but we were pretty particular.
