If it's 90 degrees at night and we are overnighting at Wal-Mart, Cracker Barrel, etc., sorry, but the generator will be running so we can have air conditioning. We have a Yamaha inverter, so it isn't a contractor grade noise maker.
While others may not agree with this approach, I think I'd upset many more people driving through a campground with my diesel at 1am and trying to park in the dark with all the obstructions and vehicles in the way. Likely have exponentially more people annoyed with me. It has little to do with being cheap, and lots to do with convenience and courtesy. At Wal-Mart, they are usually by busy roads and may have a semi or two idling away and my generator will be the least of the noise.
I know some drive 6 hours a day, then stop for the day, but that's not us. We have limited vacation and want to spend it camping, not driving to and from camping, so we push it hard to get where we are going and enjoy the extra couple days we get doing it
Same here. I have 2 EU200's in the truck bed running the AC.
