I could put a nice looking ladder/canoe rack on my Chevy 2500 and put all the solar I wanted on it.
Yes, a member here, jimindenver, does that sort of. Not good if you go into town with the truck leaving no solar for the trailer if you needed some solar for that time.
You can carry batteries and an inverter in the truck with that solar too, then just plug the trailer shore cord into the truck's inverter. That way you don't even need to turn off the trailer's converter since there is no "loop" with the truck's inverter. Also have your portable gen in the truck and a charger in the truck to do those batts if no sunshine.
Then you would be scared to park the truck in town in case it got stripped of all your neat stuff.
