Really good feedback everyone.
Many, many thanks for each bit of advice.
I learn from all the pros and cons.
Yeah... it's good to see I was right about needing a 9.5 .... and by the way, I have a long-bed Ram 3500 Dually, and I'm told that I won't need to add to the payload suspension as long as I don't go over 4,000 pounds wet.
About the generators, THANK YOU.
Honda and Yamaha do make quieter ones, and it seems the Home Depot contractor (cheaper - and LOUDER) generators are the ones to avoid.
This YouTube video claims why the technology in the generators built for RVs make them cost more but consume around a gallon of gas a day:

Does anyone know about the, "Generac iQ" generator?

Since I have no experience, I can only ... kinda imagine why someone would need a Honda AND a portable... but I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
1.) Thanks for the info about the Northwest having more Northern Lites
2.) It's also good to hear the pros (and cons) about front windows
3.) And it's also good to learn about not worrying over the term, "4 Seasons"
