The solar vs genny question always get differences of opinions. Solar is expensive for the initial setup. After that it is more or less free. Solar is great for the desert campers who are out in the sun. Solar is not very good for the woodsy campers who like the shade. You can buy an awful lot of gas with the difference in price between a solar setup & a portable genny.
The portable genny may come in handy sometime at home. The solar on the RV roof is not going to help at home.
