What is "under hood generator"?
I was looking at the road trek website and saw optional "under hood generator". What is this? Is it just a bigger alternator? Are you using the engine as a generator?

as obgraham says-technically it is a high amp alternator-however it's more of a system
the 'total' E-trek is 8 6 volt batterie/engine generator/6000 watt inverter charger-solar panels-plus the special wiring for all that power(about 50 amps).
the 'partial e-trek' is 4 6 volt batteries/3000 watt inverter/charger/solar panels and the special wiring.
although roadtrek says minimum 2500 watt inverter or minimum 5000 watt inverter in the recent past they are actually using 3000 and 6000 respectivley
