loud generators
We try to boondock when we get out but some of the places we like to go boondockin is limited. As a result we will stay in a campground . They don't offer any type of hookups only a table and a fire ...

And I don't care what kind of generator you have. It is too loud for a primitive CG on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We are talking about CGs where the hiss of gas lanterns can be heard for over 100 yards. Where If I strike a match, the folks 3 sites over look to see what happened.
IMOP. IF you just got to have electricity. Go to a CG that provides it. Don't screw camping up for every one else. OR you can do what old time campers do. buy a flashlight, a camp stove, and some propane lanterns. That is all you will need to camp in the High Country of NC. you won't even need a cooler. a good battery will run a fridge for 4 or 5 days with out needing recharging.

What annoys me is that these folks bring the kiddies to the forest and all they do is sit in the coach and watch TV all day.
One thing that people need to realize is that RV'ing is not for the poor. There have been comments here that if your generator is not red or blue, yadda yadda yadda. But overall, if you cannot afford a proper 12V system or generator, can you really afford an RV? I get that people of limited means try to camp to have a vacation, and buy old and cheap RV's to do that. Fine, no problem, but when they negatively impact the people around them, then they should learn to live with less, like no generator in the damn forest for goodness sake.
Learn to cook on the stove that is in that camper. Learn to enjoy the forest around you. Leave the TV at home.
Wonderfully worded posts, gents.
