Generator noise under bed
Those of you who own gas powered Class A motorhomes....how do you deal with the noise of the generator under your bed at night?

BTW: If you read the Cummins/Onan warranty you will find out that the use of a third party exhaust system voids the generator's factory warranty.
Adding a Genturi IS NOT using a third party exhaust system since you are not replacing any parts of the original exhaust system. It is just an add-on that re-directs the exhaust fumes.

I would not buy a motorhome with the generator under the bed, whether I planned on using it while sleeping, or not. That is simply bad design, and would be a dealbreaker for me.
At some companies, the marketing teams who design these things seem not to have an understanding of how they are used. They ship them off to dealers, buyers look, say \"I can't buy it because of that\" and it takes two to three years to find a buyer that doesn't figure out the design defect. Model meanwhile gets discontinued because dealers won't buy it. Natural selection inthe RV world.
Your first sentence kind of insults the OP for purchasing his current MH doesn't it? You offered no information regarding his question because you do not own a MH with the OP's layout. Kinda wasted reply don't you think?
The OP said nothing about having already made the purchase, so I would be appropriate to advise against getting into the situation.
