Here's the issue. (for me) Currently, in my 1999 30' Southwind Class A, I have a 4000 watt Onan internally hard mounted which works just fine 99% of the time. (single rooftop 13,500 BTU AC) True, it uses more fuel than a Honda 2000, 2100, 3200, (etc.) and it doesn't have eco mode. BUT, I'M NOT CHANGING ANYTHING THAT CURRENTLY WORKS JUST FINE!
Now, if you have a new travel trailer, fifth wheel, or camper that doesn't already have a generator, and no internal bay to mount one, then (IMO) the new Honda 3200i portable would be a good choice. IMO, with 3200 watts (max) power, and rooftop AC, you're ALWAYS going to be chasing power/load management especially if you are running the AC, . . . . even more so at higher altitudes/temperatures.
