A small in size generator to carry along in a class "C"?

I'm still debating between a class "C" or a "B", but one of the things I want to bring along is a small in size, inverter generator, even though the motorhome will have an Onan onboard. A few reasons...

Hi,

If you go to a C just beef up the battery bank.

The Onan can be started by starting up the engine on the RV, then starting the generator, but you should never cycle batteries to that depth of discharge.
