Generator, Storage, Solar, et. al
So we just bought our 2017 Bullet 247BHSWE. I hope it was a good choice. It might be at the upper end of what we can tow already. I guess a fully set up trip to the scale will tell. Now I have lots of things to figure out.
First: Where to keep the thing. We could possibly store it in front of our house, but it might not be a great idea since we rent. We could also store it (with a cover) at my mother-in-law's house. We have offered to compensate her. Is storing it in front of a house a better idea than at a random outdoor, uncovered storage facility? Yakima has had some break-ins at storage facilities, so I figure that a house is a little less likely and the money will be going to family.
Second: Solar power. I have glanced at a few articles/posts about solar power. Is it worth an attempt at all for a family that will mostly be at parks, only on random weekends, but would like freedom to dry camp on occasion?
Third: If not solar (which is probably a pipe dream), I assume I need to add a generator? What should I look for? Where should I start learning about it (if there are articles about it)? What weight does that add?
So many questions that I want to ask. I'm sure many of them have been asked so many times before. Advice for a first time trailer owner?
Thanks for all the advice and help from this forum! Pardon me, please, for being an excited, new, first time owner!
