OK, stupid question from someone who does not own a MH yet; How do you power a residential refrig when driving down the road. Large battery bank and inverter?? Surely you don't run the generator all the time.
On ours, they upgrade the inverter from 2000 to 2800 watts and add 2 additional glass mat batteries to the existing 6 when selecting the residential fridge option, so it would seem the extra 800 watts is for that fridge. Otherwise the inverter runs guite a few other things on-board such as the TVs microwave, etc.
When shopping, DW really likes her gas cooktop. Seems to be a big transition in the last two or three years towards electric. Gas wasn't a top priority, but preferred. We looked at a Tour 2011 that had the auquahot, so the only thing that used the 28 gallon LP tank was the cooktop. I looked at my wife and said the gas in that LP tank will last as long as the loan! :)
