LP generators
Roughly, how much propane does an LP generator use in say, a 12 hr period? I'm thinking of buying a Class C with the 6 cyl diesel and some of those coaches only carry 12 gal propane tanks,

- About 15% more than a similar gasoline generator would use under the same load.
Seriously,
You have not given nearly enough information to be able to give you a meaningful answer.
What size generator?
Inverter or fixed speed?
What loads are you supporting? - Propane generators are quite thirsty. 3.44 gallons per hour is possible depending on the size of the generator and the load.

A 4000 watt at 50% load may consume about 4.8 gallons in 10 hours.
Propane is a LOT harder to find especially for a fixed tank installation.
