Inverter generator while boondocking

I picked up a 3400 inverter generator for when we go boondocking instead of using the on board generator of my bay star
I was looking at the 2000 watts but I wanted to be able to use the air conditioner and I felt the inverter generator was quieter then then the big one on my motorhome
Is there anyone else who does a setup like this with a 3000 watt inverter or are most people solver while boondocking
Thank You

    Its kind of large and heavy, will it fit in your basement storage, or will you have to make other arrangements to carry it? You will need extra fuel also, getting it out of the main tank is not easy. Other than that, it should be a good unit. Lastly, if you are going to keep it in the basement, try loading and unloading a 94# sack of cement in the area, this may be your deciding factor.

    IMHO boondocking is to get away from the trappings of modern society.
    What brand of generator did you get?
